Knight Monsters Falter at Home in 5-0 Loss
Postgame recap presented by AleWorX Stateline
 
STATELINE, NV- The Knight Monsters fell behind early and couldn’t recover on Saturday against Idaho, losing game three 5-0 at home. They allowed four goals in the first period and went 0/6 on the power play in the contest.
 
The first period began relatively evenly, with both squads trading chances and testing each other's defense. But Idaho broke the deadlock just over 14 minutes in on a Wade Murphy goal from the slot. 
 
They would strike three more times in the next four minutes (two of those being on the power play), and the buzzer sounded on the first period with the Steelheads controlling the game.
 
Tahoe outshot Idaho in the final two periods 22-11, but ceded another power play goal halfway through the second, and the game ended with Steelheads netminder Ben Kraws recording a 31-save shutout. 
 
While this was a disappointing result, the Knight Monsters will still have a chance to clinch a playoff berth on Sunday in game four of the series. Puck drop is scheduled for 3 pm, with
Khalin Kapoor on the call. And, after every Knight Monsters home game make sure to check out AleWorX Stateline for a postgame party.
