LAST WEEKEND - Wichita returned home after a five-game road trip and hosted the Tulsa Oilers for two-straight. The Oilers claimed a 3-2 win on Friday night, jumping out to a three-goal lead in the first period. The Thunder climbed back into the game behind two goals from Louick Marcotte, but couldn't get over the hump. On Saturday, Wichita led 1-0 into the third before the teams traded goals. Gabriel Gagne and Drew Owsley helped the Thunder to a 3-2 shootout victory.

ROAD LESS TRAVELED - Wichita heads out of town today for a five-game road trip. This is the second five-game road trip over the last three weeks.

GAGS - Gabriel Gagne returned from Binghamton and made an impact this past Saturday night. He scored a power play goal in the first and netted the game-winner in the shootout. The rookie forward from Laval, Quebec has three goals in his last three games with the Thunder.

CAREER HIGH - Louick Marcotte added an assist on Saturday night, giving him 30 points on the year and a new career-high in that category after tallying 29 last season in Adirondack. He has five points (2g, 3a) in his last three games including two multi-point outings over that stretch.

11 TIMES - Blake Tatchell grabbed another assist on Saturday, giving him points in three-straight games (1g, 2a). He has 11 points (4g, 7a) in his last 10 games.

MILESTONES - Ian Lowe continues to move up the all-time leader board in franchise history. He appeared in his 310th game on Saturday and needs one more to tie Sean O'Reilly for third place all-time in games played.

SECONDS - Wichita appeared in just its second shootout of the season on Saturday night. Both have come against the Tulsa Oilers. The Thunder improved to 1-1 in shootout situations with the win.

STREAKS OVER - Wichita snapped a few skids on Saturday night. The Thunder stopped a seven-game home losing streak and a four-game skid. Also, the Thunder power play recorded their first goal since February 18th, which was a span of eight games.
