Missouri River Otters News Release

Buoyed by tremendous goaltending from Kevin Reiter, the Missouri River Otters stifled the Rockford IceHogs 3-1 Sunday afternoon at the Family Arena.

Jim Duhart put the River Otters on the board with a first-period power-play goal, the 494th of his illustrious career. The River Otters took a 2-0 lead early in the second period when Mark Odut fired a re-directed wrister behind Ronnie Vogel. Brad MacMillan extended the lead to 3-0 in the third period when he skated up the right wing and buried a low shot between Vogel's pads. Rockford got a goal from Rob Voltera but it was too little too late as the River Otters emerged victorious. Reiter made 29 saves in the victory while Vogel suffered the defeat.

The River Otters travel to Richmond to take on the RiverDogs Wednesday night at the Richmond Coliseum. The puck drops at 6:05 CST, and all the action can be heard on KSLQ 104.5 FM and the B2 Networks, located at www.riverotters.com.
