Tigers goaltender Mads Søgaard stopped all 18 shots faced in the contest earning his fourth shutout of the season while helping the Tabbies sweep the Pats in this year's season series. On the other end of the ice, Pats netminder Donovan Buskey was kept busy by the Tigers who fired 40 shots on net during the game.
