But it’s not like the rest of the roster belongs to AARP. TALE OF THE TAPE REGULAR-SEASON SERIES 0-1-0-0 Grand Rapids | 1-0-0-0 Chicago LAST MEETING Feb. 5, 2021 Take center Rem Pitlick, for example. He made his NHL debut with the Nashville Predators on March 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 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 came on shorthanded when he pounced on a loose puck at the Wolves’ blue line. <ul style="display: flex;"><li style="flex:1">0-1-0-0 </li><li style="flex:1">3-0-0-0 </li></ul>LEADING SCORERS <ul style="display: flex;"><li style="flex:1">GRAND RAPIDS </li><li style="flex:1">CHICAGO </li></ul>Skater Criscuolo Barber Rasmussen G100A01<ul style="display: flex;"><li style="flex:1">Pts Skater </li><li style="flex:1">G</li></ul>2332A3101Pts 5433 111 Tomasino Jarvis Pitlick “So ‘Pitter,’ he’s got some really good tools as I’m just learning myself,” said Warsofsky, who did not see Pitlick play last year while serving as the Charlotte Checkers’ head coach. “He can fly. His speed is a factor. And as we saw (Tuesday), we’ve got him on the PK, which I think can be another little tool in his toolbox. It’s something that he can do. I think he’s a smart player. He can drive offense. He can delay. He can play with some pace. I’ve really liked his game, especially in Rockford (Saturday) and again (Tuesday), I thought he was really good. He’s dangerous all over the ice.” 0 Fitzgerald SERIES GAME-BY-GAME <ul style="display: flex;"><li style="flex:1">Date Location </li><li style="flex:1">Result SF-SA PP PK </li></ul>Feb. 5 Triphahn Center Feb. 11 Triphahn Center Feb. 26 Van Andel Arena Feb. 28 Triphahn Center March19 Van Andel Arena March23 Van Andel Arena April 1 Triphahn Center May 7 Van Andel Arena May 9 Triphahn Center May 12 Van Andel Arena W, 3-1 29-23 1-4 4-5 FAST STARTS IN WOLVES HISTORY The Chicago Wolves are one of just two teams in the American Hockey League off to a 3-0-0-0 start — the Pacific Division’s San Diego Gulls being the other. To be fair, only five teams have played three games, but it’s nice to stack wins whenever they happen. This marks the Wolves’ sixth 3-0-0-0 start in the team’s 27-year history. And when Chicago has started well, it has tended to finish well.

Center Sean Malone posted three points in the Wolves’ exhibition win over Rockford, but he has yet to make his regular-season debut because he has been with the Nashville Predators. He scored his first NHL point Tuesday night when he assisted on Rocco Grimaldi’s goal vs. Tampa Bay. Center Michael McCar- ron also played in that game. <ul style="display: flex;"><li style="flex:1">SATURDAY, FEB. 6 </li><li style="flex:1">CHICAGO 5, (AT) ROCKFORD 4 </li></ul>• Center Rem Pitlick scored on a breakaway late in the second period and his goal held up as the game-winner as the Wolves rallied from a 2-0 deficit to win their road opener. • Forward Jamieson Rees delivered his first professional goal while forwards Seth Jarvis and Tanner Jeannot and defenseman Cavan Fitzgerald also scored goals. On Wednesday, Nashville also recalled defenseman Alex Carrier, who has been a steady force on the blue line in all three wins. • Goaltender Jeremy Helvig stopped 28 shots to pick up the win in his Wolves debut. 2020-21 Chicago Wolves Game Notes 2020-21 BY THE NUMBERS HOME-ROAD CONTRASTS Regular Season Goals For Home 4.00 1.50 Away 5.00 4.00 Difference 1.00 Defenseman Max Lajoie will miss today’s game after being issued a one-game suspension Wednesday by the American Hockey League.

Tomasino also added an assist as he pulled into a 2 share of the AHL’s points lead with San Diego’s Trevor Zegras (2G, 3A). Tomasino should be playing for the Ontario Hockey League’s Oshawa Generals right now, but he and three other 19-year- olds (Seth Jarvis, Jamieson Rees and Ryan Suzuki) are playing in the AHL while Canadian junior leagues are suspended to the COVID-19 pandemic. “My goal was to play in the NHL,” Tomasino said. “I’ve always wanted to work towards that. Obviously that didn’t happen, but obviously the AHL is a phenomenal league. It’s great competition. I definitely feel comfortable, but I definitely feel like I’ve got a lot more to go. My overall game — I still think I can be quicker on pucks and I can make more plays off the rush and with the puck on my stick.” Cleveland 0-0-0-0 Grand Rapids Iowa 1-0-0-0 0-0-0-0 <ul style="display: flex;"><li style="flex:1">2-0-0-0 </li><li style="flex:1">Rockford </li></ul>RECORD BY MONTH Record 3-0-0-0 0-0-0-0 0-0-0-0 0-0-0-0 Win % 1.000 .000 .000 .000 February March April May Center Seth Jarvis has scored one goal in each of his first three professional games.

Keane, who was born in Chicago and 4raised in far south suburban Homer Glen, earned AHL All-Rookie Team honors last year after posting 9 goals and 28 assists in 57 games split between Hartford and Charlotte. He’s off to a fast start this year with three assists in three games. “I think the way he plays really suits the style we want to play,” said Wolves head coach Ryan Warsofsky. “We want to play fast; uptempo. Get up in the rush with our defensemen. He’s an offensive d-man who can break out pucks. He’s had a really good year-and-a-half of pro experience.

They are among the 13 rookies on the Wolves’ 29-man roster. There are three rookies who are still waiting to make their professional debut: forward Jason Cotton (David’s older brother), defenseman D.J. King and goaltender Beck Warm.
