GLENVIEW, Ill. - The Chicago Wolves opened and closed their exhibition schedule with a 4-1 victory over the Milwaukee Admirals on Saturday night at UWM-Panther Arena.
Forwards Tomas Hyka, Gage Quinney and Brooks Macek and defenseman Erik Brannstrom produced goals for the Wolves. Goaltender Max Lagace rejected 32 shots to pick up the win.
