Down the Backstretch They Come
The IceHogs enter the final week of the regular season with three games remaining and all could influence the team’s postseason positioning. The IceHogs are fighting to move up the Central Division Standings with a potential to move out of the fourth-place post, and avoid the first-round, best-of-three series, and move up to third place and head directly to the Division Semifinals (best-of-five series). To do so, the IceHogs will need to move past the Milwaukee Admirals, making Friday’s head-to-head meeting more intriguing. AHL Playoff Primer
