On the Heat website, there's a post-game interview with Aliu after yesterday's game in which he states that he's really comfortable in Abbotsford and that the Heat are the best group of guys he has been with. He also said that it helped his confidence a lot when the Flames traded for him. Ward also spoke very highly of him.

Good on him, I think Aliu just needs stability and confidence, since he never had that previously in his pro career. He seems to do really well in that checking role.

The Heat did a good job on the forecheck for two goals - Howse knocked the puck free with a hit in the neutral zone for Aliu's first goal, and then Estoclet stole the puck in the offensive zone to set up Jessiman for the last goal. Breen with a great pass for Aliu's second goal. Tuzzolino's goal wasn't on the Heat website, but it's great when you can get some production from ECHL callups.
