A new night, but the same result. Milwaukee was able to score early and on their man-advantage opportunities and were able to move to 2-0 to start the season (and the Central standings). Iowa drops their second straight to start the year and the frustration continues to build around special teams while the team continues their search for the first points of the season.
There were some bright spots on the offense, but with the amount of penalty kills and power plays, there was very little time for Lalonde’s lines to really gel together. Iowa came out fast with 12 first period shots, but Milwaukee had all the luck coming to them.
