If it weren’t for bad luck, the Stockton Heat would have no luck at all. That’s been the story of their young inaugural season so far. As frustrating as it is to watch, it must be even more frustrating for them given their underlying numbers.
The Heat split the back-to-back weekend series against the San Jose Barracuda and the San Diego Gulls. Those two games provided a perfect example of the two different ways in which the Heat have played this season. Friday night they sprayed the opposition with shots, yet lost the game. The next night, they fired the same amount of shots and won handily.
