The Rink - B. Creek    Fri, Feb 21, 2014

Zach Collins had two goals and one assist to lead the Michigan Mountain Cats to a 4-1 victory over the Battle Creek Revolution.

Collins scored at 10:35 into the first period to make the score 1-0 Michigan and again while on the power play 12:41 into the first to make the score 2-0 Michigan.

Michigan's Walker Bass was a brick wall in net, as he came up with 26 saves and let only one puck past him. The solid play of Bass will be reflected in his goals against average, which pre-game was 4.27.

The Mountain Cats racked up the penalties in the contest, and ended with 11 minors and three majors for 77 minutes in penalty time. The total exceeded the 23.0 minutes per game Michigan had been spending in the box. The Mountain Cats excelled on the penalty kill, not giving up a single goal in eight chances. Michigan kept Battle Creek's goalie busy throughout the game, and Tyler Babinski made 43 saves on 47 shots.

The Revolution were often in penalty trouble, totaling 10 minors and two majors for 70 minutes in penalty time. Battle Creek surpassed its season average of 26.0 penalty minutes per game.
