Since the last time these two met up, San Diego has actually lost a few games. Heck, last night the Gulls dropped a game in San Antonio.
Last night, Coach Laxdal noted that his guys were very tired coming off the trip. Tonight, it will be doubly so. It will be important for Texas to score early and not get behind early, which has been an issue in some games where they've had trouble.
Former Dallas Star Adam Cracknell has had the game-winning goal in the last two San Diego wins. His season has bounced him around the NHL and AHL from AHL Toronto to the Ducks org.
