Chicago Mustangs beat the Harrisburg Heat 6-3. Tough game as Chicago was down 1-0 and 2-1 before scoring 3 goals after the heat tied them at 3-3. Typical crowd not bad.
Very solid game by the Harrisburg Heat. Their goalie made several great saves. On paper, this game looked like it would be a blow-out. Chicago had to work for the victory.
The Heat have been very competitive lately (minus the Cedar Rapids contest). They seem to get off to a lead in a lot of their games and then usually totally collapse sometime in the third period. The main Heat contributers have been injured most of the year. Though winless, the Heat (in the games I have attended) have always played with a 'we're not giving up' attitude. If the Heat have to improve in one aspect of their game it has to be on the set plays. They do not create quality shots on goal during set plays. The loss of Gonzaga is going to be a concern going forward, but it will probably give Tyler Witmer more of a chance to run the offense.
Yeah other than that 8 goal loss to a 1-10 team. LOL That said I would have easily expected Chicago to score 14 goals on them the next night and it was a battle.
