Griffins Take Series Lead over Chicago Wolves with 4-2 Win at Van Andel

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Rebounding from their first loss of the 2017 Calder Cup Playoffs 23 hours earlier, the Grand Rapids Griffins showed their resolve on Saturday with a 4-2 victory over the Chicago Wolves at Van Andel Arena.

Showing no hangover from Friday’s 7-3 defeat in the Windy City, the Griffins got goals from Matthew Ford, Ben Street and Tyler Bertuzzi before the game was 11 minutes old, and Jared Coreau made 27 saves to help Grand Rapids preserve the home-ice advantage that it earned with Wednesday’s Game 1 triumph.
