REGULAR-SEASON SERIES As the Central Division-leading Wolves try to stretch their winning streak to five — and to extend their 0-4-0-0 Grand Rapids | 4-0-0-0 Chicago seven-point division lead over the second-place Grand Rapids Griffins — they are summoning yet LAST MEETING Feb. 28, 2021 another goaltender...and it’s one quite familiar to the visiting team. Prior to today’s game, the Carolina Hurricanes loaned veteran goaltender Petr Mrazek to the Wolves as part of a conditioning stint. The 29-year-old Ostrava, Czech Republic, native entered this season as Carolina’s top goaltender, but he has not played since injuring his right thumb on Jan. 30 against 8-4-2-0 12-2-0-1 the Dallas Stars.

But if the American April 13 Van Andel Arena Hockey League intends to hand out the Most Valuable Player award at the end of this shortened April 26 Van Andel Arena season, then 23-year-old forward Tanner Jeannot deserves to be on the short list for consideration.

AHLTV.COM DON’T SLEEP ON PITLICK 2020-21 During the Chicago Wolves’ fast start, a lot of attention has been paid to the team’s teenagers — which TALE OF THE TAPE makes sense because there are several of them and they’ve been plenty good through the first three REGULAR-SEASON SERIES games. 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.

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. His game-winner Tuesday against Rockford LEADING SCORERS came on shorthanded when he pounced on a loose puck at the Wolves’ blue line.

    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.

  • Chicaggo Wolves Game Notes
    2020-21 Chicago Wolves Game Notes CHICAGO AT ROCKFORD FEB. 6, 2021 3 P.M. AHLTV.COM OPENING COURSE: YOUTH IS SERVED 2020-21 In the days leading up to the Chicago Wolves’ opener Friday night against the Grand Rapids Griffins, TALE OF THE TAPE head coach Ryan Warsofsky promised that his youngest players would be thrown right into the fire. REGULAR-SEASON SERIES Sure enough, when the Wolves took the ice, their 12-man forward group featured four players who 0-0-0-0 Rockford | 0-0-0-0 Chicago would normally be playing in juniors. LAST MEETING March 8, 2020 But with the juniors on hold until further notice due to COVID-19, four 19-year-olds — Seth Jarvis, Jamieson Rees, Ryan Suzuki and Phil Tomasino — found themselves in the thick of the action during the Wolves’ 3-1 victory over the Griffins that served as their professional debuts. Each youngster was placed on a different line with more experienced players. But when the power plays came... 0-0-0-0 1-0-0-0 Jarvis, who turned 19 Monday, delivered the game-winning goal when he deposited a power-play goal past Griffins goaltender Pat Nagle at the 2:09 mark of the second period. Tomasino and rookie LEADING SCORERS LAST YEAR Dominik Bokk (who turned 21 Wednesday) set up Jarvis with a perfect tic-tac-toe while Suzuki was ROCKFORD CHICAGO also part of that power-play unit. The only non-rookie, defenseman Jeremy Davies, showed some Skater G A Pts Skater G A Pts veteran savvy as he went out of his way to pick up the puck as a souvenir for Jarvis.
