ONTARIO, Calif. – Glenn Gawdin found the back of the net and Stockton piled on a season-high 51 shots on goal, but Ontario Reign netminder Cal Petersen was up to the task in registering 50 saves in a 5-1 win for the Reign Friday night at Toyota Arena. 
The Reign jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the game’s opening frame and Stockton was unable to climb to within arms’ reach as Ontario responded to Gawdin’s second-period strike with back-to-back scores to stifle the comeback attempt before it could get into gear.
The loss represents the first two-game regulation losing streak of the season for the Heat, who entered Friday 7-0-0-0 on the year following regulation losses with an impressive 35-14 scoring differential prior to tonight’s contest.
