Texas Falls Late in Opener in Cleveland

Texas found the equalizer but got no further in the third period, falling 3-1 to the Cleveland Monsters Thursday night in Ohio. Nick Baptiste continued his scoring streak with the game-tying goal in the final frame, extending the streak to seven games (5-5=10).

However, the power play both giveth and taketh away this evening in the Buckeye state. While Baptiste's goal did come on the Texas man-advantage, so too did the eventual game-winning tally for Cleveland. Ben Gleason attempted a move to go inside and coughed up the puck. Tyler Angle finished the play up ice after two deft passes out of the Monsters zone.
