INDIANAPOLIS - The Fuel look to sweep Iowa in their third and final matchup on this three-game road trip.
LAST TIME OUT
Three special teams goals propelled the Fuel to their second straight win in Iowa 7-1. Andrew Bellant and Seamus Malone had short-handed goals in the first period and Anthony Petruzzelli scored the game's only power-play goal.
There were seven different goal scorers for the Fuel and there was no doubt about this one as Iowa did not score their first goal until the third period when they were already down by five.
