BOISE, Idaho – The Idaho Steelheads (23-16-1) converted off a third-period turnover to edge out the 3-2 win over the Kansas City Mavericks (18-21-1) on Saturday night from Idaho Central Arena in front of 5,196 fans, the 14th sellout of the season.THE GAME’S STORYThe Steelheads garnered an early power play and made the most of it to hop in front for the third-straight game. Five seconds into the power play, captain A.J. White (PP, 2:32 1st) deflected a shot from the right point to earn their first lead of the night, 1-0. The Mavericks came alive in the second period and answered with two-straight tallies through the middle of the frame to take their first lead of the weekend at 2-1. White (16:49 2nd) earned his second of the night on a breakaway set up by a blocked shot to level the scoring, 2-2, into the third period. A costly turnover by the Mavericks netminder allowed forward Luc Brown (7:04 3rd) to walk in and place a shot into an open net, completing the comeback and snagging the 3-2 win.ICCU 3 STARS OF THE GAME1.
