Goals and assists
Jason Grande logged his second shutout this week as Nottingham
Panthers beat Dundee Stars 4-0 in front of 6,588 fans at the Motorpoint
Arena.
The Panthers were ahead inside ten minutes. Quinn Wichers
got onto a rebound from his own shot on a delayed penalty to open the
scoring at 9:12 after a pass into the slot from Mitchell Fossier. The
goal was Wichers' first of the season. Both teams killed off a penalty
to end the period with the Panthers ahead by one.
Goals just over
seven minutes apart put the Panthers in total control of the game in
period two, despite Dundee arguably having more chances in the middle
session. Fossier fed the puck into the slot for Tim Doherty to beat
Jarrett Fiske 6:56 into the period, while 72 seconds later Matt Alfaro
capped some nice Panthers passing to make it 3-0. Didrik Henbrant
one-timed Kris Kontos' feed from below the goal line to make it four at
33:50. Both sides hit the iron in the period with the game at 1-0, and
had Stars scored it could have been very different.
Period three
passed off with both sides killing a penalty each but nothing else in
the way of scoring, allowing the Panthers to cut the gap on second to
just a point.
