For the second consecutive game, the Stockton Heat and the Chicago Wolves engaged in a very entertaining back and forth hockey game in the American Hockey League’s Western Conference Final series. For the second consecutive game, the Heat played quite well but just couldn’t get the one goal they needed to capture victory.
A breakaway goal from Josh Leivo with just 17 seconds left in regulation spelled the difference in a 3-2 Wolves victory over Stockton to give Chicago a 2-0 series lead.
The flow of the game
The Heat got off to a rough start, as Chicago went on an odd-man rush off the opening face-off, with Jack Drury picking the top corner on Dustin Wolf to give the Wolves a 1-0 lead just 17 seconds into the game.
