Steel Shuts Out Ohio
Bensenville, IL (December 29, 2006) --
Coming back after the USHL holiday break, the Chicago
Steel were looking to pick up a win for their new Head
Coach Steve Poapst. Facing their divisional foe for the
first time this year the Steel and Ohio went into the
third period scoreless. In the third period, Chicago got
things going 6:26 into the period when Troy Mattila
found the back of the net with Tim Buttery getting the
assist. The momentum was clearly on Chicago’s side as it
took only 15 seconds for Chicago to score again and for
Tyler Murovich to get his first USHL goal; Dan Ryan had
the assist. Later in the period Brian Keane got Murovich
the puck and he was able to light the lamp again
collecting his second goal of the night, and the Steel
shutout Ohio 3-0.
The Steel goaltender Rob Madore came up big tonight
stopping all 30 shots that he faced and with the win
against Ohio, and he was able to get his first shutout
of the season.
With the win over Ohio, The Steel moved out of a tie for
last place and Steve Poapst collected his ever important
first win in the USHL.
The Steel are back in action Saturday, December 30th at
home against the Waterloo Blackhawks. Tickets are still
available and puck drop is set for 7:30.
