All good things must come to an end.
The Manitoba Moose ended the Stockton Heat’s eight-game winning streak on Saturday, stifling the visitors’ attack and pulling out a 4-2 victory on home ice.
Even with the loss, the 8-3-0 Heat currently enjoy a comfortable lead atop the AHL’s Canadian Division. Manitoba (7-7-2) is back in the win column and at a .500 points percentage on the season.
Artyom Zagidulin made 36 saves for the Heat; at the other end, Eric Comrie only had to face 21 shots and stopped 19 of them for the victory in his first AHL contest of 2020–21.
