OILERS SHUTOUT BY STEELHEADS, BARCZEWSKI
Six Steelheads score as Oilers shutout by Idaho
BOISE, Idaho — The Tulsa Oilers, proud ECHL affiliate of the NHL’s Anaheim Ducks and the AHL’s San Diego Gulls, and powered by Community Care, lost 6-0 to the Idaho Steelheads on Friday night at Idaho Central Arena in Boise, Idaho.
Mitch Wahl didn’t take long to find the eventual game winner, beating Vyacheslav Buteyets just 3:27 into the action. Liam Malmquist extended Idaho’s lead to 2-0, registering his second goal in many games just 40 seconds before the midway mark of the opening period.
Jade Miller opened the second-period scoring only 1:05 into the frame, beating
Buteyets in tight with a lob finish. Back-to-back pro debut goals in the seventeenth-minute of the second period—the first from Morgan Winters and the second from Nick Young — resulted in a change of Tulsa netminders and a 5-0 Idaho lead headed into the third period.
Ty Pelton-Byce beat David Tendeck with a short-handed goal 3:18 into the final frame, closing Idaho’s victory 6-0.
Jake Barczewski stopped 36-of-36 for his second shutout of the season.
The Oilers and Steelheads face off in a rubber match tomorrow, Friday, March 21 at Idaho Central Arena, with puck drop at 8:10 p.m. CT.
