It took a shootout to do it, but the Tucson Roadrunners, paced by goalie Tyler Parks and regulation goals from Colin Theisen and Hudson Elynuik, defeated the first-place Calgary Wranglers 3-2 at Tucson Arena Saturday night.
James Kelley Arizona Daily Star After losing 5-0 to the Calgary Wranglers on Friday, the Tucson Roadrunners regrouped to beat the AHL’s top team 3-2 in a shootout at home on Saturday night.
Tucson goalie Tyler Parks made 24 saves. He also stopped two of the Wranglers’ three shots in the shootout. The San Jose Barracuda also won Saturday in overtime to stay mere percentage points behind the Roadrunners for that final divisional playoff spot. "We all agreed, we didn’t think was a 5-0 game,” Theisen said. “I thought our effort was there, just a couple bounces didn’t go our way, and we came out with the same approach, just cleaned up some small details. And I felt we executed."
It was their first goal against the Wranglers since the first two minutes of the third period of their Nov. 4 game in Calgary.“Obviously we got shut out, but we thought we had our chances,” Elynuik said. • The Tucson Fire Department won Saturday’s First Responders Game 4-3. The firefighters also won the annual tilt with the Tucson Police Department, 8-2, last year.
