SAN DIEGO – Matthew Ford netted the game-winner with 1:27 remaining as the Grand Rapids Griffins began their season-high six-game road trip with a come-from-behind 4-3 win against the San Diego Gulls on Wednesday night at Pechanga Arena San Diego.
The Griffins claimed the contest’s final three tallies after San Diego (9-10-1-0) lit the lamp a trio of times over a 4:52 span in the first period to take a two-goal lead. The victory snaps Grand Rapids’ seven-game winless streak overall and four-game drought on foreign ice.
The Griffins (10-13-1-2) continue along in their road swing with a Friday-Saturday set against the Bakersfield Condors.
