After an outpouring of offense in Manitoba on Wednesday, Milwaukee couldn’t contain the visiting Colorado Eagles and finished the week with a 1-1-1 record. The Admirals still trail second-place Manitoba in the standings and have a 0.547 points percentage.
With 23 games remaining, Milwaukee will need to piece together a long winning streak or two if they want to catch the Moose while avoiding fourth-place Rockford.
Quick Hits
- Over the weekend, defender Matt Tennyson was recalled to Nashville and then returned to Milwaukee

With Matt Luff in Nashville, Milwaukee took on rival Manitoba last Wednesday with an 11-forward, 7-defender lineup and Connor Ingram in the net (no surprise there).
