Fresh off their 4–2 win over the Ontario Reign on Sunday, the Stockton Heat will try to do it again at the Toyota Arena in Ontario on Monday.

@Jakob Pelletier, @Matthew Phillips, and @Byron Froese each had two points for Stockton in the victory. Phillips picked up primary assists on Stockton&#8217;s first two goals; Pelletier and Froese scored the first and third Heat goals, respectively.
@Dustin Wolf stopped 31 of the 33 shots he faced against Ontario on Sunday and was named the game&#8217;s first star for his efforts. The 20-year-old goaltender is now 6–0–2 with a .931 save percentage in eight appearances this season.
@Adam Werner will likely start for Stockton on Monday. He&#8217;s a perfect 4–0–0 with a .922 save percentage to start the 2021–22 season. The 24-year-old Swede is on a one-year contract with the Flames and will likely become a Group 6 unrestricted free agent at the end of the year.
@Glenn Gawdin recorded the primary assist on @Luke Philp&#8217;s last-second empty-net goal in Ontario on Sunday. With the helper, Gawdin moved into first place on the Stockton Heat all-time scoring leaderboard with 110 points (32 goals, 78 assists) in 149 games. @Ryan Lomberg now sits in second with 109 points in 219 games; Phillips ranks third with 105 points in 146 contests.

<h2>Scoring leaders</h2>
This section excludes players recalled to the NHL or on assignment to other leagues.
Stockton — @Adam Ruzicka (10 goals, 16 points); @Jakob Pelletier (six goals, 15 points); @Glenn Gawdin (one goal, 12 points); @Matthew Phillips (four goals, 12 points); @Byron Froese (three goals, 10 points).
Ontario — @Martin Frk (nine goals, 20 points); @T.J. Tynan (three goals, 14 points); @Jaret Anderson-Dolan (five goals, 12 points); @Vladimir Tkachev (zero goals, 10 points); @Alex Turcotte (three goals, nine points).
<h2>Players to watch</h2>
Stockton — @Byron Froese. Stockton&#8217;s captain already has twice as many points as he managed last season despite having played five fewer games. The 30-year-old forward has three goals and 10 points in 10 games, most recently adding two points in the win over Ontario on Sunday. If Froese can connect with @Connor Zary at 5-on-5, the Heat could get some serious secondary scoring.
Ontario — @Vladimir Tkachev. Once upon a time, Tkachev was &#8220;<a href="https://edmontonjournal.com/sports/hockey/nhl/cult-of-hockey/tiny-vladimir-tkachev-continues-to-beat-odds-inks-three-year-contract-with-edmonton-oilers">Vladdy Hockey</a>&#8221; to Edmonton Oilers fans. Seven years after the Oilers unsuccessfully attempted to sign Tkachev to an entry-level deal, he&#8217;s officially in North America as a member of the Los Angeles Kings organization. He managed two assists in his first four NHL games with the Kings before being demoted to Ontario, where he&#8217;s been on fire with 10 points in six games.
