, Ozzy Wiesblatt scored his first goal of the season to give the Admirals a brief lead, but the Wolves quickly responded with two goals from Justin Robidas, sealing the win for Chicago.
Despite a strong performance from Admirals’ goaltender Matt Murray, who made a season-high 35 saves, the late-game heroics of Justin Robidas proved decisive. Robidas’ second goal of the night came off a point shot by Domenick Fensore with just 6.5 seconds remaining, scoring a decisive goal in front of the 9,234 fans at the UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena. After taking the lead midway through the third period on a power play, the game’s momentum quickly shifted, resulting in Milwaukee’s first loss since the season opener in Grand Rapids. The Admirals will face the Wolves again in their next game.
The Admirals’ only goal in yesterday’s game was the result of a combined effort, with Jake Lucchini passing to Wiesblatt, who landed the puck past Wolves’ goalie Yaniv Perets, detailed in a report from

This secured the Wolves’ second consecutive victory, Robidas expressed enthusiasm, “This is the fourth time we’ve played them and they beat us three times so to get this one on the road is pretty special,” according to a statement on
