HEAT CLIPPED BY EAGLES WEDNESDAY, 2-1
The Heat scored first, Kirkland’s power play marker at 18:05 of the first breaking the ice with assists from Andy Welinski and Matthew Phillips.
Colorado bounced back early in the second, Callahan Burke finding the back of the net out of a net-front scramble to even the score, and the visitors then jumped ahead in the third as Dylan Sikura netted what proved to the game-winner at 2:34 of the final frame.
