GAME!NOTES TUCSON at CHICAGO OCTOBER 22, 2017 4 p.m. THE U TOO 2017-18 SPECIAL!TIMES>!SPECIAL!TEAMS TALE!OF!THE!TAPE Special teams were a decisive factor in Saturday’s tilt between the Chicago Wolves and Tucson REGULAR-SEASON SERIES Roadrunners. The Roadrunners nabbed the game’s first special-teams goal at 7:09 of the opening 1-0-0-0 Tucson | 0-1-0-0 Chicago period when Dakota Mermis cashed in on a shorthanded opportunity to give Tucson a 1-0 lead. In the second session, Tucson scored a power-play tally in the first 55 seconds for a 3-1 lead. After a 4-on-4 goal from Shea Theodore, the Wolves countered with a 5-on-3 power-play goal of their own in the final three minutes of the second period. The Wolves were clicking along at two PPGs per game entering the action, but Saturday night the club could only muster one.

Last season, Megan assisted on Etem 1 0 1 Theodore 1 1 2 goals just as much as he scored with 33 helpers. He and his primary linemate Kenny Agostino – last Mermis 1 0 1 Megan 0 2 2 season’s AHL Most Valuable Player – combined for 92 assists.
