Ontario Reign Lines
(Based on last game - stick tap, Jason Lewis for the lines)
- Peter Budaj was absolutely fantastic in the Pacific's 1-0 loss during the ASG.
- Sean Backman was terrific as well, scoring a goal for the Pacific in the championship elimination round.
- The team is now back to work and ready to take on the SJ Barracuda in a pair of games this weekend.
- "Big Mike" Michael Mersch scored his team-leading 17th goal of the season on the team's first power play. He probably could've had a meat trick if not for Dell being terrific in net.
- Peter Budaj recorded his league-leading sixth shutout of the season. What can he possibly do tonight??
San Jose Barracuda Lines
(based on last game, from Fear the Fin):
89 Goodrow - 40 Carpenter - 84 Parkes
11 Lerg (C) - 86 Langlois - 21 Smith
38 Haley (A) - 17 McCarthy (A) - 82 Goldobin
13 Torres - 72 Doremus - 55 Emanuelsson

- Aaron Dell was absolutely fantastic in net for the Barracuda last night.
- Tonight, Grosenick will try to replicate that performance, except with a win.
- Coach Roy Sommer is still chasing his 637th career win (most in AHL history), while the Reign hope to hold him off just a little longer.
