Tonight's Winner

Jerry Mander was an absolutely explosive threat for the Outlaws tonight as he showed why he is here to stay in the city of Anaheim while putting up an astounding four point night. A hat trick is hard to come by in this league but Mander did it in brilliant fashion. Not only was the guy all over the ice offensively, he proved his might defensively by adding a hit and a shot blocked to really round out a fantastic game. If he keeps up this trend line, Mander could find himself at the top of the point scoring standings in no time.


Tonight's Loser
This is unquestionably the Militia's goaltending unit who really let down their fan base on this one. Despite having two talented goaltenders, the team couldn't seem to be able to rely on their tandem who went 17/22 on saves against their opponent. A stat line like this is extremely disappointing, and is going to be hard to overcome if Montreal wants to be taken seriously. Rookie Mitchell Maverick caught a start in this game but failed to show what he's made of, posting a 86.7% save percentage and letting in a number of easy bounces. Recovering from tonight's game will be integral towards the team rebounding and rising up the standings.


Our defensive leader
Tonight's defensive leader was unquestionably Noah Tedla. Anaheim's king of the blue line really gave us an example of why he is considered a top calibre player in the league of today with an absolutely killer defensive night where we saw him post 2 hits and a whopping 7 shots blocked. Finding time on both the power play and penalty kill, it's safe to assume that Tedla was a major game changer for his team, and that he really shifted the tide to help his team take this monstrous win. We can see his defensive success transpire over onto goaltender Patrick Neiderreiter, who also had a great night between the posts.
