The American Hockey League affiliate of the Calgary Flames, the Stockton Heat, continued their first round playoff series with the San Jose Barracuda on Sunday evening. While Game 1 of the series was defined by some strong goaltending from San Jose’s Troy Grosenick and Stockton’s Jon Gillies, Game 2 was the exact opposite kind of game.
Both starting goaltenders looked suspect at times but the Heat managed to spot themselves a four goal lead and then cling on for dear life to win Game 2 by a 6-4 score.

The Heat opened the scoring with a nice individual effort from Mark Jankowski.
