With COVID-19 ravaging the NHL, Milwaukee faced a tough task over the weekend in the red-hot Chicago Wolves, who lead the division with a staggering 20-4-2 record. The Admirals struggled in both games but showed some positives—especially given the context of a shorthanded lineup.
Last night, though, Milwaukee got back in the win column with a gritty 2-0 road win over Rockford, leaving them with an 11-13-2 record on the season.
