Tommy Rodgers got the scoring going for Durango and finished with five goals and seven assists. Kyle Robinette added six goals and three assists along with six ground balls.
Jackson Steigelman had a huge game with six goals, one assist and five ground balls. Cullen Robinette added two goals and three assists, and TJ Rifkin had two goals and two assists.
Collin Barkley, Corbin Randle, Ryan Smith and Jeb Steigelman all had one goal each. Barkley and Smith also had one assist each.
Durango outshot Montrose 48-8 in the lopsided contest. Easton Verduzco was 18-of-22 on faceoffs, and Harrison Kairalla also went 5-of-7.
After the busy two weeks of action, the Demons will be off until April 7, when they will travel to play Fruita Monument.
