TUCSON, Ariz. (KOLD News 13) - The Tucson Roadrunners continued their opening series vs the San Jose Barracuda Monday night, besting the Barracuda 5-3 to open the season 2-0 for the first second time in three seasons.
The first period was filled with action, as both teams exchanged pleasantries early and often, with some of the tension from yesterday’s matchup carrying over. The real excitement came in the last six minutes of the period, as both teams scored twice to head to the locker rooms tied at 2. Jan Jenik had his North American pro goal, while 2019-20 AHL All-Star Lane Pederson had his first of the year after leading the team in goals two seasons ago.
