Chicago Wolves beat Toronto in shootout

The Chicago Wolves ran their points streak to six games by defeating the Marlies 5-4 in a shootout Saturday in Toronto.

Bradly Nadeau notched the winner in the shootout and had a goal and an assist in regulation as the Wolves kicked off a three-game road trip with the triumph. Ryan Suzuki and Justin Robidas also each had a goal and an assist and Ronan Seeley scored as Chicago won its second contest in a row and fifth in its last six.

The teams exchanged goals during an explosive opening period and when the dust settled, the Wolves held a 3-2 advantage at the first intermission.

The Marlies kicked things off with a Matthew Barbolini tally 2 minutes, 51 seconds into the game before Seeley evened things.

The defenseman extended his goal-scoring streak to three contests when his wrist shot from the high slot found its way through traffic and sailed past Marlies netminder Artur Akhtyamov to the stick side. Joel Nystrom had the assist on Seeley’s sixth marker of the season.
