IceHogs Can't Solve Wolves on the Road
Chicago, IL – The Rockford IceHogs couldn’t find their groove against the Chicago Wolves on Sunday, falling 4-0. It’s the first time this season the Hogs have been held off the score sheet.
The Wolves had the legs early and capitalized on their offensive pressure with a little over three minutes to go in the opening period. Defenseman Ronan Seeley leaned into a lapper and blasted his first of the year past Rockford’s Mitchell Weeks.
In the 2nd period, Chicago extended its lead with another goal from a blueliner. Aleksi Heimosalmi’s rocket from the line got through traffic for a 2-0 Wolves lead. Chicago forward Noel Gunler banged in a rebound with the Wolves on the man-advantage to push the score to 3-0.
The Chicago power play converted for a second time thanks to Skyler Brind’Amour’s deflection just outside of the crease ballooning the lead to 4-0. Dustin Tokarski kept the Rockford offense at bay the rest of the way and finished with a 29-save shutout performance.
The IceHogs are back home inside the BMO Center Tuesday, November 19th to host the Texas Stars. Click here for tickets.
