Scoop with Stutts: Reign Excited for Challenge with Stockton Heat Tonight

After a successful three-game road trip, the Ontario Reign return to Citizens Business Bank Arena tonight to open a four-game homestand and face arguably their biggest challenge to date in the Stockton Heat.

The Heat enter tonight’s contest on a three-game winning streak and sit in second place of the Pacific Division with a 10-4-0-1 record. The Reign are trending upward with five wins over their last seven contests (5-1-0-1).

Head Coach Mike Stothers is looking forward to seeing how the Reign measure up to a gifted Heat squad that holds balanced scoring as well as solid defense and goaltending.
