Solid Effort Falls Short: The Americans played a tight game on Friday night losing to the Idaho Steelheads 1-0 at Idaho Central Arena. The only goal of the hockey game came early in the second period as Idaho’s Kaleb Pearson scored on the power play, his sixth goal of the season to give the Steelheads a 1-0 lead. It was the only goal that beat Americans starter Luke Richardson, who stopped 37 of 38 Idaho shots. The Americans continued their struggles on the power play going 0-for-4. Idaho had five power play opportunities going 1-for-5. Idaho outshot the Americans 38-31 for the game. Kaleb Pearson led Idaho with seven shots on net. Mark Duarte led the Americans with six.

The Big Goose Egg: With the Americans 1-0 loss in Idaho on Friday night it marked the third time in the last five games that the Americans were shutout by their opponent. Allen has been shutout eight times this season. The Americans have scored a total of three goals in their last six games.

Head-to-Head with Idaho: The Americans and Steelheads have played three times this season, with Idaho winning all three games. From the current roster, Brian Chambers and Nick Isaacson lead the Americans in scoring against Idaho with one point each.

Six Pack: The Americans losing streak has reached six games. The team has dropped 10 straight at home. Their longest road losing streak this year was 12. 

After 20 Minutes: When trailing after the first period it’s been a struggle for the Americans this season winning just two times all year (2-26-2-0).
