The road-weary Texas Stars could not overcome a late goal from Rocco Grimaldi off a turnover, falling 3-2 to the Wolves in Rosemont, Illinois, this evening, wrapping up their road trip with four of a possible six points.
Oskar Bäck appeared to have opened the scoring early in the first period as a harmless dump-in took a weird bounce and beat Keith Kinkaid, who had abandoned his cage to play it behind the net. The play was immediately waved off as the weird bounce came from the puck striking the linesman Ibrahim Arifi's skate. By rule, that's no goal.
