Defending the Pack: a look at Hartford’s impressive defense

On October 27th, 2019, the Hartford Wolf Pack played the Bridgeport Sound Tigers, their in-state rivals, at Webster Bank Arena. This was a game where the Pack had fallen behind during the second period but came back to win in overtime 3-2 on a goal by defenseman Darren Raddysh.

At this point of the season, the Wolf Pack had recorded a standings point in all nine games they had played, including that game in Bridgeport, going 8-0-0-1 in that span. A big reason for the excellent start had to do with the play of defenseman Ryan Lindgren, who was among the final cuts made by the Rangers before the beginning of the season despite a good camp.
