SAN JOSE- The Barracuda looked to extend their winning streak against the Wranglers on Friday night.

In between the pipes for San Jose was Eetu Makiniemi while for the Wranglers Dustin Wolf was in goal.

The first period was rather uneventful, with no goals and the Wranglers getting the most of the chances with 15 shots on goal.

The one penalty in the period was killed off by San Jose as Valtteri Pulli was called for holding.

It took a while to get a goal but 13:24 into the second Ethan Frisch got his first career AHL goal.

Then on the power play San Jose extended their lead to two as Nathan Todd got his ninth goal of the season.

The second period also saw plenty of penalties mainly taken by Calgary as they took five.

The final frame saw the home team pull away even further as Jordy Bellerive scored his fourth of the campaign.

Makiniemi was then able to secure the shutout which was his second of the season as he made 37 saves.

Neither team’s powerplay was all that notable except for the penalty kill as Calgary went 0/4 while San Jose went 1/4.

The shots in this one favored Calgary 37-21.

The three stars of the game were: 1st: Eetu Makiniemi 2nd: Ethan Firsch 3rd: Valterri Pulli

The Barracuda will look to extend this winning streak to three at home as they will play Calgary tomorrow at 6 p.m.
