Waterloo gained two more points in their quest to try to climb in the rankings in the USHL's Western Conference with another thrilling overtime victory on Friday night. However, they couldn't "weather the storm" on Saturday night getting down by a large margin.
Saturday night at Tri-City
According to a team game re-cap: the Tri-City Storm pushed to a five-goal lead before stifling a Black Hawks comeback bid in a Saturday night matchup that finished 5-2 at Viaero Center in Kearney, Nebraska. The Storm had three first period power plays and cashed in on two of them. In the 2nd period, Waterloo created reason for optimism. Skating four-on-four, Matt Argentina went to the net to shovel in a loose puck. About one minute and half later, Ethan Szmagaj scored on a power play goal. However, the Storm prevented a comeback, despite an early 3rd period leg injury to their starting goalie Connor Hopkins.
