Ogden Mustangs

OGDEN – The Ogden Mustangs have announced their 1st Annual Hill Air Force Base Appreciation Night on Saturday at The Ice Sheet.

The Mustangs will be offering $2 tickets to military personnel and their families for all three weekend games, Nov. 9, 10 and 11. The main festivities, however, will take place on Saturday.

The Mustangs will be wearing commemorative camouflage jerseys during Saturday night's game, which will be auctioned off to fans during the game.

SALT LAKE CITY — A pair of big wins propelled the Ogden Mustangs into a solid second place in the Western States Hockey League Northwest Conference as they beat in-state rival Salt Lake Moose 8-1, 5-2 over the weekend.

On Friday night Ogden nabbed two power-play scores as local favorite Kody Rodriguez lit up the scoreboard with four goals and Tyler Fallica stopped 23 shots in a big 8-1 Mustangs win.

OGDEN — For the second straight weekend, the Ogden Mustangs netted a 2-1 series win, this time over the Southern Oregon Spartans with a 6-3, 6-4, 2-7 effort at the Weber County Ice Sheet.

Despite Sunday’s 7-2 loss, the Mustangs (4-3-1-1) now sit in second place in the Western States Hockey League’s Pacific Division ahead of next weekend’s series in Southern Oregon against the same Spartan team.

“We got complacent,” Ogden head coach Jake Laime said of Sunday’s loss. “We came off two well-earned wins and we took them a little bit for granted and we didn’t put together a full 60 minutes. It’s a three-game series and we can’t forget about that.”

OGDEN — It was a winning weekend for the Ogden Mustangs as they picked up their first wins of the season and grabbed a 2-1 road series victory over the Bay Area Seals with a 4-5, 5-2, 6-2 effort.

Zach O’Mara tallied four points and Christian Kraus scored three goals in the series as the Mustangs outscored the Seals 15-9 ahead of a big homestand at the Weber County Ice Sheet this weekend.

Friday proved to be a defensive battle early on as neither team scored in the first period and the Seals only logged 15 shots on the night.

OGDEN — If Friday’s season opener was any indication of what the Ogden Mustangs have in store this year, area hockey fans are in for six months of sore throats.

It took overtime, then penalty shots for the Mustangs and Valencia Flyers to settle the first contest of the season with Valencia narrowly escaping the Weber County Ice Sheet with a 3-2 shootout win.

OGDEN -- After just one season in the U.S. and a successful campaign with the expansion Ogden Mustangs, Lukas Moudry will have a chance to move on to the big time this coming season, playing professionally in Denmark.

Moudry, a speedy winger from the Czech Republic, became a crowd favorite in Ogden for his gritty play and his often-animated reactions and goal celebrations.
