The Checkers and Admirals went back and forth across regulation in their rematch on Saturday night, but Kyle Criscuolo would strike on a power play in the third period to bring the game to overtime. Mike Benning played the hero in the extra frame as his shot got past the netminder and finished off the Admirals for an overtime win.
Charlotte’s battle would come up short against the Admirals, with John Leonard’s early third-period goal briefly tying the game, but Milwaukee immediately responded to take control back to finish off the contest.
Throughout this season we’re going to check in on how the Florida Panthers and Savannah Ghost Pirates are doing and how former Checkers are helping them with the Affiliate Report - presented by Eastway Regional Recreation Center!
