Part of me can't help but wonder how the Bats only score one goal against a team that gave up 12 the last two nights, but that's a nice two points for Austin.

They do it with a rare shorthanded tally and an equally rare shootout goal from Josh St Louis, as well as the expected score from Brandon Carper, who has five SHOGs on five attempts. And sure enough -- give Jonathan Forest something to prove and he gives you a great game.

My favorite part of last night's game was Belecki's stop of Richardson, after which the Rayz captain patted his longtime friend and former teammate on the mask.

Austin's postseason chances remain far-fetched, but here's something to play for Tuesday -- staying perfect for all-time against the team from Oklahoma City.
