Now that was more like it for Dylan Garand and the Hartford Wolf Pack. The New York Rangers goalie prospect turned in a gem Wednesday night at PeoplesBank Arena, leading Hartford to its first win of the season, 3-0 over Springfield.
Garand made 28 saves to earn his ninth career shutout and 50th win in the American Hockey League. And it came after he allowed six goals and lost his first two games amid Hartford’s 0-3-0-0 start to the 2025-26 season.
“I thought he was outstanding tonight, and that’s more of what we’ll see from Dylan,” Hartford coach Grant Potulny said postgame.
