Eetu Makiniemi made 22 saves on Friday for his first shutout win since Jan. 20, 2023, and his fifth of his career as the Barracuda blanked the Calgary Wranglers, 3-0. Makiniemi has now won back-to-back games and is 1-1-0-1 against the Wranglers lifetime. Shakir Mukhamadullin (1+1=2), Leon Gawanke (0+2=2), and Danil Gushchin (0+2=2) would all finish the game with multi-point efforts, and Nathan Todd and Thomas Bordeleau would pot power-play goals.
