The Stockton Heat will try again to advance to the Western Conference Final on Sunday when they take on the Colorado Eagles in Game 4 of their Pacific Division Final series.
The Heat won the first two games against the Eagles before falling in overtime by a 6–5 score in Game 3. Colorado forward Jean-Luc Foudy scored his first goal of the series in the extra frame to seal the victory.
Stockton forward Matthew Phillips had one of his best performances of the season in the losing effort, scoring three points (two goals, one assist) and firing five shots at Eagles goaltender Justus Annunen.
