Jerad Stewart, Trevor Bruess and Geoff Irwin (empty-netter) scored goals in the third period, as the Mavericks improved their road record to 4-0-3 and went to 8-3-3 overall. Coach Troy Jutting called it perhaps his team's best performance of the season, equaled only by the 2-1 win over Colorado College three weeks ago.
The Mavericks outshot the Falcons 41-27. Mike Zacharias stopped 25 shots for his eighth win. Irwin had a goal and an assist, and Mick Berge finished with two assists. Irwin, Berge and Kurt Davis each finished the series with three points.
"When you’re on the road, your old guys and your best players have to play well, and they did tonight," Jutting said.
PucKato is looking forward to returning to live action next week.
