100 Degree Weekly: Defensive Rotation to Build Confidence and Riley Tufte's Emergence

[Ed. note: Seeking names for his column. All the best have a name (e.g. 32 Thoughts).]

Texas got their first chance to come out of a series with more than two points and came up with just the pair this past weekend in Cedar Park. It was an excellent chance given that the IceHogs were on the last game of their season-long six-game road trip. Ultimately, the Hogs jumped out to a 2-0 lead, and never looked back.

Defensive rotation

Keen observers of this past weekend's games will note that defenseman Ben Gleason had three assists on Thursday night and was then out, a healthy scratch, on Saturday.
