The Utah Grizzlies won their season-high fourth game in a row by beating the Witchita Thunder 7-3 on Friday night and are playing their best hockey of the season.
It wasn’t the quantity of shots that counted for Utah but the quality. The Grizzlies converted six of their 14 shots through two periods into into goals.And you know it’s going well when you score two shot-handed goals as Michael Pelech and Ryan Misiak did for Utah. Even fan favorite Travis Howe got in on the fun for his first of the season.
Two former Grizzlies buried the puck against their former club as Jon Puskar waltzed unscathed across the ice for a goal and Ralph Cuddemi buried two chances.
