Werner Helps Drive Colorado to 2-1 Win over San Diego May 12, 2021
LOVELAND, CO. – Colorado goaltender Adam Werner turned aside 26 of the 27 shots he faced to help lead the Eagles to a 2-1 win over the San Diego Gulls on Wednesday. Forwards Martin Kaut and Riley Woods each netted a goal in the victory, while defenseman Keaton Middleton chipped in a pair of assists. The win was punctuated by a 3-for-3 performance in a contest where the Gulls were limited to just 23 shots on net.
Colorado would score the game’s first goal when Kaut drove into the zone and picked up a rebound in the right-wing circle before firing the puck into the back of the net. The goal was Kaut’s sixth of the season and gave the Eagles a 1-0 edge at the 8:02 mark of the first period.
