The Stockton Heat will try to get one step closer to a Pacific Division crown, and a first round playoff bye, when they host the Tucson Roadrunners at Stockton Arena tonight at 7:30 p.m. MT
The Heat are coming off a disappointing three game set with the Henderson Silver Knights last week which saw them win in overtime, then lose twice in regulation.
Stockton enters Wednesday’s action with a magic number of six points: any combination of points earned by Stockton or lost by the Ontario Reign totalling six will clinch the division for the Heat.
Rookie sensation Jakob Pelletier missed Sunday’s game with an upper body injury and was listed as day-to-day, so we’ll see if he slots back into the lineup.
