0-0 midway through the first period, getting outshot 9-2 by the basement-dwelling Henderson Silver Knights. One of Abbotsford's "shots" was a dump-in from centre ice.

1-0 Abbotsford after one period. A wrist shot from the right point by McWard leaked under the arm of the Henderson goalie and Karlsson was there to poke the loose puck into an open net. Two struggling teams and the quality of play was representative of that fact.

Three minutes into the second period, watching both teams continue to hamfist their plays with the puck, my interest is hanging by a thread.

Late in a PP, Karlsson chips a bouncing puck across the crease to Mueller who scores from short range. 2-0, 13 minutes left in the second period.

A nice play was bound to happen and it was good work by Karlsson to maintain possession along the boards, getting the puck to Wolanin who drew multiple defenders to him and then spun and fired a perfect pass to Karlsson alone at the side of the net, he buried it for a 3-0 lead. Three points for Karlsson.

Woo joined the rush, took a pass from Blais and made an offensive zone pass that was deflected but went to Mueller who had a wide-open net to shoot into. Two goals each for Mueller and Karlsson.
Silver Knights scored on a rush down the left wing, getting a shot from the slot that found the five-hole of Tolopilo. 4-1 after two periods. Abbotsford has really struggled in third periods this season so the W isn't in the bag yet.

Abbotsford finally 'bumps the slump, first win in seven games, although it was against lowly Henderson.
Ty Mueller is having a nice rookie season in the AHL. Still unsure what, if any, NHL future he might have. But he's young enough (still only 21). So he has time to continue to develop.

Mueller was supposed to be a prospect with good defensive smarts and hustle, so his offensive output to this point has been a very pleasant surprise. Hopefully a promising indicator that we have an NHL player on our hands, too.
