A season-long six-game road trip is next on the team's slate. They'll travel to four cities over a 13-day span as they look to maintain the promise shown for a postseason push.
WHAT A SHOW
On Sunday, Jan, 28, the Roadrunners' three representatives participated in the 2018 AHL All-Star Skills Competition - appearing in a combined four events and making a total of 10 appearances during the night.
One night later, in the 2018 AHL All-Star Challenge, Merkley, Strome, and Capobianco, representing the Pacific Division, combined for 17 points as they helped their team reach the championship game.
Nick Merkley (2G, 5A) led all players in points with seven, Kyle Capobianco (3G, 3A) finished with the second-highest total in registering six, and Dylan Strome contributed with three goals and an assist.
Strome's assist, a highlight-reel spin-o-rama pass to Rasmus Andersson which made it onto ESPN SportsCenter's Top 10 Plays, set-up the Pacific Division's game-winning goal in their 4-3 win over the North Division in the team's third and final round-robin game.
SISLO'S RECORD
Mike Sislo set a new franchise record in registering points in nine consecutive games. In a streak that spanned from January 10 - 27, Sislo accumulated a total of 10 points (3G, 7A), breaking Dylan Strome's old franchise high of points in eight straight games.
WORKING OVERTIME
The Roadrunners went to overtime in three straight games from Jan. 19-26, earning 2-1 wins in all of them.
Mario Kempe netted the game-winner on Jan. 19 against San Antonio, Lawson Crouse on Jan. 20 against San Antonio, and Dakota Mermis on Jan. 26 against Chicago.
The team is now 6-2 in overtime this season.
MISKA MAGNIFICENT
Hunter Miska won all five of his decisions during the Roadrunners' last 10 games, three of which came on the road. He has now won seven straight decisions dating back to December 29, and is a perfect 7-0-0 on the road.
Miska was the winning goaltender in two of the team's three overtime wins during the last 10-game stretch, and is now 5-0 in overtime games this season.
With 14 wins on the season, Miska is behind only Texas' Landon Bow (15) for the most wins among rookie goaltenders.
