Colorado Eagles News Release


LOVELAND, CO. - Colorado collected goals from forwards Josh Dickinson, Ryan Wagner and Colin Campbell, as the Eagles topped the Texas Stars, 3-1 on Wednesday. Goaltender Adam Werner made 30 saves on 31 shots to pick up his 18th win of the season. Colorado outshot the Stars 36-32, as both teams finished the night going 0-for-2 on the power play.

Dickinson would kick off the scoring when he fielded a rebound and snapped it home from the side of the crease to give Colorado a 1-0 edge at the 17:02 mark of the first period. The Eagles and Stars would each throw nine shots on net in the opening 20 minutes and Colorado would carry its 1-0 lead into the first intermission.

Texas would square things up in early in the second period when forward Joel L'Esperance sliced between the circles and belted a one-timer past Werner to tie the game at 1-1 at the 5:12 mark of the middle frame.

Still deadlocked at 1-1 as the two teams hit the ice for the third period, Wagner would break the stalemate when he weaved his way through the right-wing circle before snapping a shot past Stars goaltender Landon Bow to put the Eagles back on top, 2-1 just 3:38 into the final frame.

Colorado would add some insurance when Campbell followed up a strong rush to the net by A.J. Greer, nabbing a rebound and stuffing it into the back of the net. The tally was Campbell's third goal in two games and gave the Eagles a 3-1 advantage with 7:48 left to play in the contest.

The Eagles return to action when they travel to take on the Stockton Heat on Saturday, March 14th at 7:00pm MT at Stockton Arena.
