GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Highlighted by Moritz Seider’s two-point night, five Griffins rookies combined to score three goals and chip in three assists on Wednesday as Grand Rapids claimed a 4-3 victory over the San Antonio Rampage at Van Andel Arena.
Seider’s first AHL goal proved to be the game-winner and followed up tallies by first-year forwards Gregor MacLeod and Ryan Kuffner, while Joe Veleno and Chase Pearson each registered an assist on Kuffner’s power play marker midway through the second period. Combined with a strong 27-save performance by veteran Calvin Pickard en route to his 100th AHL victory, it added up to the Griffins’ third win in their last four outings both at home and overall.
