SUDDEN IMPACT: The Rampage acquired forward Joakim Lindstrom from Anaheim (NHL) last week. After playing in Iowa (AHL), Lindstrom's acquisition infused 21 points in the Rampage lineup. In his first two games with San Antonio, Joakim added two more with a goal and an assist.

WELCOME BACK: Last week San Antonio saw the return of two impact players. Both Joel Perrault and David Spina returned from injuries and contributed immediately.
