CLEVELAND - The AHL's defending Calder Cup Champions, the Cleveland Monsters, proudly powered by Constellation, were defeated by the Rockford IceHogs on Wednesday at The Q by a final score of 1-0. With the loss, the Monsters fell to 17-15-1-3 overall this season and with a .528 points percentage, remain alone in fourth place in the AHL's Central Division standings.
The IceHogs grabbed a 1-0 lead at 3:00 of the opening period when an even-strength breakaway led to Evan Mosey's third tally of the season, a goal that featured assists from Jake Dowell and Cameron Schilling and proved to be the game's lone scoring play.
