Chicago Wolves end four-game skid with shootout win at Iowa
The Chicago Wolves snapped a four-game losing streak by rallying to stun the Iowa Wild 4-3 in a shootout Wednesday night in Des Moines, Iowa.
Noel Gunler notched the game-winner in the shootout, Ronan Seeley had two goals — including the tying marker late in the third period — and Evan Vierling also scored to propel the Wolves to their 30th victory of the season. Felix Unger Sorum chipped in two assists for Chicago in the ninth of 10 meetings between the Central Division rivals this season.
The Wolves got on the scoreboard early on Vierling’s 14th goal of the season. Unger Sorum’s shot from the top of the right circle deflected off Wolves forward Ryan Suzuki in front before Vierling pounced on the puck and fired it past Wild netminder William Rousseau to the stick side. The goal that came 4 minutes, 29 seconds into the game was assisted by Suzuki and Unger Sorum.
