Big Mase

Mason McDonald turned in a dominant performance against the Idaho Steelheads Saturday night, stopping 35 of 36 shots, good for a .972 save percentage and continuing his impressive run of goaltending in February and into March.

Eick's Game Winning Effort

Forward CJ Eick scored the game winning goal last night on a shorthanded, unassisted goal. It was Eick's first shorthanded goal of the season and wound up being the difference in the weekend's rubber match between the Mavericks and Idaho Steelheads.

The veteran has five goals and five assists last 10 games for the Mavericks, leading a February surge that has the Mavericks firmly in the fourth and final playoff spot in the Mountain Division.

February Rebound

After a 4-6-1 January, the Mavericks rebounded with a 7-4-1-0 February record, highlighted by a three game stretch against the then- first place Utah Grizzlies in which the Mavericks took home five of a possible six points in West Valley City, UT.

The Ides Of March

The Mavericks will only have four home games remaining on the schedule.
