Parsons Powers Stockton Past Ontario

ONTARIO, Calif. - Tyler Parsons set a new Heat team record for single-game saves with 51 on 53 shots faced and Tyler Graovac recorded his 50th point of the season as Stockton prevailed by a 4-2 final score over the Reign Friday night in Ontario. With the win, the Heat wrap up their second-straight year with a winning road record, finishing the 2018/19 slate 16-15-2-1 away from Stockton Arena. Stockton never trailed on the night after jumping out to a 2-0 lead thanks to the youth, with Mason Morelli netting his second AHL goal, both coming over the last two games, and Nolan Yaremko registering his first-career AHL marker. Zach Fischer, who made his AHL debut in the game, registered an assist on Yaremko's tally. After the Reign tied it through two periods, the veteran Graovac registered his fourth shorthanded goal of the season while claiming the team lead for goals on the year with his 24th, pushing the Heat ahead to a lead they would not relinquish. Stockton will conclude its season Sunday on home ice, playing host to the Bakersfield Condors.
