REGULAR-SEASON SERIES 1-6-0-0 Rockford | 6-1-0-0 Chicago That’s certainly how it’s working for so many Chicago Wolves this season. When the Wolves head to LAST MEETING April 7, 2021 Rockford tonight for their eighth meeting of the year with the IceHogs, they’ll be without their top two scorers due to recent recalls that were sparked by significant streaks. Forward Tanner Jeannot scored goals in eight straight AHL appearances from Feb. 21 to April 7, including four goals against the IceHogs. Jeannot also owns a 12-game point streak that remains 7-13-1-0 15-4-0-1 active. But before he could put either of those streaks on the line again, Jeannot and his 10 goals and 11 assists were recalled by the NHL’s Nashville Predators on Sunday.

But it’s not like the rest of the roster belongs to AARP. 0-1-0-0 Grand Rapids | 1-0-0-0 Chicago LAST MEETING Take center Rem Pitlick, for example. He made his NHL debut with the Nashville Predators on March Feb. 5, 2021 25, 2019 — shortly before his 22nd birthday. The Ottawa native then scored 20 goals in 63 games last year for the AHL’s Milwaukee Admirals during his first year as a pro. Nashville’s 2016 third-round pick has served as head coach Ryan Warsofsky’s first-line center for all three games and has been terrific at both ends of the ice. Pitlick shares the American Hockey League 0-1-0-0 3-0-0-0 lead with three goals and has earned the game-winning goal in each of the last two games — both of them breakaway goals that looked remarkably similar.

    2020-21 Chicago Wolves Game Notes CHICAGO AT ROCKFORD APRIL 7, 2021 6 P.M. AHLTV.COM GOING FOR GREATNESS 2020-21 As the Chicago Wolves and the Rockford IceHogs wrap up their four-game set over a 12-day stretch TALE OF THE TAPE (the Wolves also found time to face the Grand Rapids Griffins once), it’s intriguing to chart how the current Wolves compare with some of the great teams of the franchise’s past. REGULAR-SEASON SERIES 0-6-0-0 Rockford | 6-0-0-0 Chicago With their 4-2 win over the IceHogs Saturday night in Hoffman Estates, the Wolves improved their LAST MEETING April 3, 2021 record to 14-2-0-1. The only Wolves team that can match that is the 2007-08 crew that led the American Hockey League from start to finish on the way to hoisting the Calder Cup. John Anderson’s 2007-08 squad actually rolled out to a 13-0-1-0 start — their only defeat a 1-0 overtime loss to a Milwaukee Admirals team backstopped by Pekka Rinne. They then dropped two out of three 6-12-1-0 14-2-0-1 games, which moved them to the 14-2-1-0 record that equals the current team. SERIES LEADERS While the 2007-08 and the 2021 teams boast the same record, it’s not easy to compare the two — and not just because of this year’s shorter schedule with fewer opponents and less travel. ROCKFORD CHICAGO Skater G A Pts Skater G A Pts The 2007-08 squad featured Most Valuable Player Jason Krog enjoying a dominant season from start Wilkie 2 4 6 Jeannot 4 4 8 to finish, but he didn’t have two of his best teammates at his side for most of the first two months.

    SATURDAY, MAY 8, 2021 – TRIPHAHN CENTER ICE ARENA at GRAND RAPIDS GRIFFINS (13-10-3-1) at CHICAGO WOLVES (18-7-1-2) Griffins Game #28 * Road Game #14 * AHL Game #359 RECORDS Season Series: 2-6-0-0 Home Series: 2-2-0-0 Road Series: 0-4-0-0 All-Time Series: 89-70-2-6-3 All-Time Home Series: 44-31-2-4-2 All-Time Road Series: 45-39-0-2-1 Griffins at Wolves Ninth of 10 meetings overall, fifth of five in Hoffman Estates…The Griffins and Wolves have split the first four clashes at Van Andel Arena, but Chicago has prevailed in all four meetings at the Triphahn Center Ice Arena...Any Chicago win tonight would eliminate Grand Rapids from conten- tion for the Central Division title...The Griffins, who broke a season-high four-game winless skid with last night’s 5-4 victory over Chicago, are 2-6 against the Wolves and 11-4-3-1 versus all other teams...It took until their ninth home game of the season for the Griffins to suffer a regulation loss at home — becoming the last AHL team to do so — as Chicago skated to a 5-1 victory on April 26...It served as payback of sorts for Grand Rap- ids’ 4-1 home victory over the Wolves on Feb. 26, which snapped Chicago’s franchise-record seven-game winning streak to start the sea- son...Prior to last night, the Griffins hadn’t scored more than three goals in seven straight games, dating to a 5-3 win over Cleveland on April 20..
