St. Charles Chill News Release

St. Charles, Mo - Over 6,000 fans came out to support the Chill for their inaugural season finale but it was the Quad City Mallards who took control of the game in the second period and pulled away in the third for a final score of 5-0 on Saturday night.

The Chill (11-49-6) fed off the energy of 6,542 fans in the house but could not cash in on a couple of early quality scoring chances before Quad City (32-23-10) got things going offensively. The Mallards took a 1-0 lead on a fluky goal when a centering pass tipped off a skate blade and popped over the shoulder of Robby Moss midway through the opening frame. The game would go back and forth the rest of the period before Quad City's Mike Stinziani took a loose puck in the crease and put it top shelf in the final second of the first for a 2-0 lead.

The Mallards poured on the offensive pressure in the second period, outshooting St. Charles 18-4 but Moss came up with some big saves. Quad City finally broke through with less than two minutes left in the second period on a goal from Jordan Mayer to stretch the lead to 3-0.

The Chill outshot the Mallards in the final period but it was Quad City who put the game out of reach at the 6:13 mark on a goal from Jeff Lee. St. Charles could not find a way to solve Thomas Heemskirk in net who would pitch the shutout on the night. The Mallards would add an unassisted power play goal from Nagy in the final minute of play to post the final score of 5-0.

The St. Charles Chill would like to thank all the fans and sponsors for a great inaugural season. You can reserve your season tickets today, starting at under $10 a game.
