Credit last night's win to one of the best ICE defensive performances all season. They shut Calgary right down, limiting them to 14 shots and only a few actual scoring chances. On top of that, both ICE goals came from defensemen, Tanner Brown and Ben Zloty. Nice to see the defense step up in the absence of so many key offensive players. It was a bit surprising to see a team in the middle of a playoff race like Calgary get pushed around the way they did, they didn't play with a ton of urgency.
As a sidenote, the crowd last night was very small, it looked even smaller than the crowds during the 50% capacity limit. It was announced at 1,057 but that sounds a bit generous. I guess all of the postponed home games and long stretches of road games haven't done the ICE many favours but that is a small crowd for a team that is successful on the ice and increasingly established in the community. All three of the city's high-profile teams are struggling at the box office.
