Thunder Closes Road Trip With Loss In KC

INDEPENDENCE, MO (Feb. 28) – Wichita finished a four-game road trip on Tuesday night, losing to Kansas City by a 4-1 final at Cable Dahmer Arena. 

Jay Dickman tallied his 19th of the season in the losing effort. 

Nick Pastujov made it 1-0 midway through the first period. Justin Kapelmaster made the initial save on a shot from Josh Lammon. Pastujov stayed with the play and put home a rebound for his 13th of the year. 

In the second, Dickman tied it at 14:29 as he hammered home a one-timer from the right circle with assists to Peter Bates and Cole MacDonald. 

Luke Stevens gave the Mavericks the lead for good at 18:25. He fired a one-timer off the rush from the top of the left circle past Kapelmaster's glove for his 11th of the year. 

Keeghan Howdeshell made it 3-1 just four minutes in the third period. He took a pass across the goal-mouth from Hugo Roy for his 12th of the season. 

Cole Coskey made it 4-1 at 15:34 to close the scoring.

With the loss, Kansas City moves into third place two points behind the Thunder in the Mountain Division and hands the Thunder their fifth-straight loss.
