ROCKFORD — The Rockford IceHogs’ power play was ranked 25th in the AHL during the regular season. But after two playoff games, it has Rockford on the verge of the second round of the Calder Cup Playoffs.
Three power play goals from the IceHogs led Rockford to a 5-2 win over the Chicago Wolves in Game 2 of their best-of-5 Central Division semifinal.
“We’ve been real good for a while now,” Rockford coach Jeremy Colliton said of the IceHogs’ power play. “Every time those guys go over the boards, they feel like they can make a difference in the game.
