Iowa heads to the desert for two games against the Tucson Roadrunners

It is time to start putting wins together. You can argue that they’re only seven games into a 76-game season. You can argue that Derek Lalonde has gotten the short end via all of the call-ups and injuries on his roster. You can argue that Iowa has been without some of their top players, as seen with the production of Kyle Rau.

All of those are reasonable stances, and I wouldn’t disagree with them. With those seven games in the books, Iowa looks at their five game segments as 2-3-0, while currently sitting at 0-1-1. Iowa is already 1-0 against the Pacific Division after a 3-0 win over Ontario (Los Angeles Kings), and now they have the opportunity to improve on the success as they take on the Tucson Roadrunners (Arizona Coyotes) in their first trip out west of 2017-18.
