Utah Grizzlies News Release
West Valley City, Utah-The Utah Grizzlies scored fast and furious to end a five-game winless streak, defeating the Phoenix RoadRunners 7-3 Friday night at the E-Center.
In the first period, Ryan Kinasewich got the scoring started for the Grizzlies, when he found the back of the net twice, at the 5:40 and 9:06 marks for his 16th and 17th goals of the season. After taking a Barret Ehgoetz pass, Jeff Miles weaved his way through traffic and added another Grizzlies goal to extend the lead to three, 11:32 into the game. With less than a minute remaining in the first period, the RoadRunners got on the board thanks to a Justin Quenneville power-play goal.
The second period was a defensive battle until Garett Cameron put the puck past RoadRunners netminder, Mike Mole, at the 15:56 mark to increase the Grizzlies lead to 4-1.
The RoadRunners cut the lead in half when Shawn Snider slipped the puck into the net at the 8:27 mark in the third period. Utah then erupted for three goals in 2:41 when Barret Ehgoetz, Jeff Miles and Colt King all put the puck past the pipes. The RoadRunners added a late third period goal when Justin Quenneville scored his second power-play goal of the night, but it was too little, too late as the Grizzles held on for the victory.
Ryan Kinasewich (2 goals, 1 assist), Garett Cameron (1 goal, 1 assist), Louis Dumont (2 assists), Barret Ehgoetz (1 goal, 1 assist) and Brad Herauf (2 assists) all had multi-point outings for the Grizzlies. Colt King continued his offensive tear, scoring his sixth goal in seven games.
