HEAT TOPS IN THE AHL
Quote:
|
The Heat (13-5-1-0) are tied at 27 points with the St. John’s IceCaps (Winnipeg Jets affiliate) and though St. John’s does have one fewer game played, Abbotsford has made a name for itself as the best in the West and a team to reckon with on the road.

GOALTENDING DUEL
Quote:
In their 1-0 shootout win Sunday evening, the Heat’s Leland Irving made 34 saves in regulation and overtime, and then stopped all five shootout attempts.
Irving now leads the AHL in shutouts with his third blank sheet, while he also is the leader in wins (13), minutes played (1,022) and shootout wins (three). His goals against average is a stingy 1.94 to go with his .927 save percentage.
