The Iowa Heartlanders are looking to bounce bak after being shutout in yesterdays game. Game one of this weekend saw the Knight Monsters on the wrong side of a blowout. Game two was a goaltending battle. Neither team has had a string overall advantage after the first two games. This series has been back and fourth. This game could be another low scoring goaltending battle. One team may dominate. The Knight Monsters do need to get their offense going more though. They have been struggling to score against the Heartlanders. After yesterdays game the Knight Monsters proved they can shut the Heartlanders down.
