Texas has been outside the playoff race for a few seasons but as we've reached mid way, the team is starting to figure things out. The team doesn't have much of a chance to catch the rest of the Central division but they have an opportunity to race against the Minnesota Monarchs for playoff position. The games against them get furious as the points are close, and any game against each other is crucial. As Boots ties up Froste in the corner, Baltisberger comes in from behind and gets his stick just high enough to graze Boots under the chin. It's not enough to cause any harm, and Boots decides not to react as he's got his man Froste who he thinks is the most dangerous one to worry about. As the puck comes loose, Boots give Froste a shove and pokes Baltisberger with his stick behind the legs to get his attention and yell at him to watch the stick. Boots would rather provoke a legit penalty instead of taking the dive. It's not something he's known for, but he'll use it as fuel to provoke something else in hopes of drawing a penalty.
