CEDAR PARK, Texas — Landon Bow saw one shot in Wednesday night’s overtime period of a 4-3 Texas Stars loss to the Stockton Heat. Calgary Flames farmhand Colin Smith tapped it past Bow on a drive-by deflection, and in a pivotal late-season game between two teams battling for Calder Cup Playoffs spot, Bow failed to save his squad.
He should be disappointed and underwhelmed, maybe upset and unwilling to talk to the media after the game. Instead, the 22-year-old walked right up to the bright camera light and the multitude of microphones with a confident stride and a straight face.
