IceHogs' Rally with 3rd Period Comeback

Rockford, IL – The Rockford IceHogs bested the Manitoba Moose at home inside the BMO Center Friday night 3-2. The Hogs rallied late with two 3^rd period goals to end a four-game losing streak.

Rockford earned itself a pair of early powerplays, including almost a full two minutes of 5-on-3 time. After a faceoff win, Artyom Levshunov and Kevin Korchinski combined to set up Frank Nazar’s first man-advantage goal of the year.

The Moose countered to tie the game 1-1 with just over five minutes to go in the 2^nd period. Mark Liwiski got loose behind the net and found Tyson Empey alone in front to snap it past Rockford’s goaltender Mitchell Weeks.

In the 3^rd period, Empey found the net for his second goal of the night to give Manitoba its first lead 2-1. The Rockford response came quick thanks to Cole Guttman banging in a rebound past Manitoba’s Thomas Milic and evened the game 2-2. With just under seven minutes to go in regulation, Gerry Mayhew drove the net and had a Brett Seney shot deflect off him and into the net.

Rockford travels to Chicago for the first time this season on Sunday for a 3:00pm puck drop against the Wolves. The IceHogs are back home inside the BMO Center Tuesday, November 19^th to host the Texas Stars. Click here for tickets.
