Kansas City faced off against the Kalamazoo Wings tonight. This is the first game against these guys since that goalie fight that Mason McDonald found himself in as well as 90 other minutes of penalties throughout that other game.

Mason McDonald gets the start in net. Chris Nell is their only other goalie option at the moment as he was assigned to KC this afternoon after the Parsons call up.

They own the first period finishing it 2-0. Greg Betzold scores within 3 minutes of puck drop and Matt Robertson gets the second halfway through. Both teams take a penalty and the Wings do not seem to get up on the rush and in the offensive zones as much as the Mavs. Shots finish 14-8 for the Mavericks.

The second played quite similarly to the first. Mavericks owned most of it and put up 2 more goals by Troy Donnay and Jordan Kwas. Kwas gets 2 points on the night with an assist on Donnay's goal. The Wings put up 1 to answer to the Mavericks 3 then the Mavs show they are still fully in control of the game. Matt Robertson came within inches of goal number 2. Nice to see him continuing to buzz as if he never missed any time due to injury. The Mavericks still controlled the shots at the end of this one 26-11.

The Mavericks keep the hold over the Wings until the last 10 seconds where a weak play gets the Wings their 2nd goal but comes way too late. Final score 4-2. Shots end 35-29. They will face the Quad City Mallards tomorrow night for another home game.
