Heartlanders morning game a tremendous success and a 3-2 win

 

Coralville, Iowa – The Iowa Heartlanders overcame two deficits and Liam Coughlin scored the game-winning goal at 5:27 of the third to defeat the Utah Grizzlies, 3-2, Wednesday vs. Utah.

On Coughlin’s man-up marker, Odeen Tufto (2a) and Louis Boudon broke in over the right-wing line and twirled it to a wide-open Coughlin at the slot. He put a shot above the left pad and in for his third of the season. 

The Heartlanders tied the game at one early in the second period off Nick Campoli’s third of the season. He came through right-wing line, lowered his shoulder and elevated the puck underneath the back bar and in for the strike at 6:01 of the second. Max Cajkovic and Kevin McKernan assisted. 

After Dylan Fitze restored the Utah lead, 2-1, the Heartlanders broke through to even the score at two. 

Davis Koch slammed a wrister from the left circle past the screened goaltender, assisted by Liam Coughlin.

The teams entered the third tied at two before Coughlin’s game winner.
