The Charlotte Checkers’ road points streak ended tonight with a 4-2 loss at the hands of the Hartford Wolf Pack. After fighting to come back from an early deficit, Charlotte’s efforts fell short as Hartford took the lead in the third period.
The Checkers squared off with another Eastern Conference powerhouse when they welcomed Toronto to town and exited the weekend with a hard-fought split.
It took more than 60 minutes, but the Checkers finished the job in their rematch with the Marlies thanks to a clutch overtime strike from John Leonard.
