The Checkers headed out for the midwest last week and kept their momentum rolling, taking down the Iowa Wild in back-to-back contests to run their winning streak to a season-best four games.
Checkers rookie netminder Kirill Gerasimyuk’s first AHL win was a 17-save shutout as the Charlotte Checkers (8-4-1-0) blanked the Iowa Wild (4-9-0-1) 2-0 on Saturday night at Casey’s Center.
