* Very lackluster effort with only 35 shot attempts, 16 of those got on net, and 13 were blocked.
* At least the shot blocking on the defensive end didn't take a night off as the Hawks had 21 total with Seth Jones and Calvin de Haan collecting 6 and 5 respectively.
* For the second game in a row, Dylan Strome used his much improved eye-hand coordination to score a PP deflection goal from the top of the crease.

Game Notes
* Ian Mitchell is on fire offensively with his 4th goal in the last 4 games; his 7 total goals and 18 points lead all Rockford blueliners.
* Although he didn't score in regulation after netting a pair on Friday, Michal Teply bagged his second shootout winner of the season.
* A bottom 6 forward on the Hawks, Mike Hardman is thriving as a top 6 power forward for the Hogs with 6 goals and 11 points in a dozen AHL games.

Prospect Updates
#Blackhawks Wyatt Kaiser tore his MCL last night after an awkward hit into the boards. He was an absolute warrior about it, skating off with a little help from his teammates.

An ELC is still possible for Kaiser but a third collegiate year wouldn't hurt either.
