Hogs Continue Hot Streak in Grand Rapids
The IceHogs extended their point streak to a season-high four games (3-0-0-1) and picked up their third consecutive win with a 4-1 victory at Grand Rapids last night and improved to 1-2-0-0 in their head-to-head series against the Griffins. Since the start of November, the IceHogs have picked up points in eight of their last 11 games (6-3-1-1). Recap & Highlights
Delia Delights
Goaltender Collin Delia made a season-high 40 saves last night including 16 saves in the third period for his second win of the season. All-time, he improved to 8-7-1 in 16 appearances against the Griffins.
