INDEPENDENCE, Mo. – The Idaho Steelheads (28-19-3) finished their three-game road swing with a 5-1 loss to the Kansas City Mavericks (23-24-3) on Monday evening from Cable Dahmer Arena.THE GAME’S STORYThe Mavericks came out of the gates quickly and rallied around a goal coming right after their first power play of the game to take the initial 1-0 lead. The Steelheads weathered the early storm and found a breakaway in the back half of the second period to help rally forward offensively and come into their own. Momentum didn’t convert to tallies before the Mavericks earned two more goals in the third period, but forward Zach Walker (16:42 3rd) was able to string together a tally to give the road side a chance at the comeback, 3-1. However, the Mavericks earned two more late to seal the 5-1 result.ICCU 3 STARS OF THE GAME1. KC – Darik Angeli (two goals)2. KC – Matt Greenfield (24-25 saved)3.
