ROSEMONT, Ill. – Former Chicago Wolves players Andrew Agozzino, Samuel Blais and Ville Husso helped propel the San Antonio Rampage to a 2-1 victory over the Wolves Saturday night at Allstate Arena. With the loss, Chicago’s franchise-record home win streak ended at 13 consecutive games.
While defenseman Griffin Reinhart scored for the Wolves (25-17-6-2), Agozzino scored a power-play goal set up by Blais and Husso made 30 saves for the Rampage (26-20-6).
“We had lots of scoring chances,” said Wolves head coach Rocky Thompson. “(Husso) played really good tonight. He got to rebounds. He made secondary saves.”
Reinhart boomed a shot from the left point that found its way through net-front traffic and behind Husso (12-8-2) for the 1-0 Chicago lead at 11:19 of the first frame.
Just 1:46 later — with Brett Sterling serving a slashing minor — the Rampage knotted the game 1-1. On the rush, defenseman David Warsofsky leaned into a shot from the top of the left circle. Agozzino was at the net side and tucked the puck between Kasimir Kaskisuo (12-11-2) and the post for the equalizer.
While the Wolves were on the power play, San Antonio took the 2-1 lead at 8:31 of the second session. Right wing Reid Petryk corralled a turnover in the Rampage zone and skated the length of the ice up on his off wing, unchallenged, and lasered a shot top-shelf over Kaskisuo’s glove.
Kaskisuo made 20 saves in the loss.
