Colorado Caps Weekend Roadtrip
Dec 18, 2021
The Colorado Eagles will face off against the Stockton Heat in the second in a pair of weekend games in California.
Last night saw Stockton score three unanswered goals, including a pair on the power play, to defeat the Colorado Eagles, 3-2 in overtime. Eagles forwards Cal Burke and Dalton Smith each found the back of the net in the loss. Heat defenseman Andy Welinski scored the game-winner with only seven seconds left in the extra session, as Colorado desperately tried to kill off a 4-on-3 power play.
Tonight the Eagles will look to keep the matchup close, but come out on the other side.
