Another night. Another important game for the Monsters.
A little over five minutes into the first period, the Rockford IceHogs scored their first goal of the game on their first shot of the game.
Victor Ejdsell picked up the puck after getting off the box and fired the puck past Brad Thiessen.
The Monsters tied the game up at one with 2:26 left in the first period. Dillon Simpson snuck around the back of the net and pushed the puck past the goal line. Brett Gallant had Lucas Carlsson distracted as he was pushing him around.
