“It was huge,” forward James Saintey said of the win. “It gave us momentum for this three-game series. We can play 60 minutes and put it to ’em.”

“We’re going to have to forget about this game and move on to the next game (at 7:30 tonight),” said Ice Dogs forward Mark Pustin, who scored the first goal off a nifty feed from Kyle Politz barely five minutes into the contest attended by 2,349 rowdy fans.

Jared Larson was named Sherwood/NAHL West Player of the Week for his 4 goal, 2 assist performance against Alpena.
