HOUSTON — Viktor Gordiouk had two goals and an assist as the Ice Dogs defeated the Houston Aeros, 4-2, Friday night in an International Hockey League game.

Ice Dog goalie David Littman stopped 18 of 20 shots. Houston led, 2-0, on goals by Vadim Slivchenko and Mike Maurice, but the Ice Dogs rallied to win their third road game in a row. The Aeros are winless in four games.
