INDIANAPOLIS, IN- The Indiana Ice and Cedar Rapids RoughRiders will decide their first round playoff series Wednesday night in Cedar Rapids, IA. The puck drops at 8:05 p.m. from Cedar Rapids Ice Arena.
The Ice evened the best-of-five first round series with a dominant 6-1 win over the RoughRiders Monday night from Pan Am Plaza.
Casey DeSmith continued his torrid play in net stopping 41 shots in the victory and he has now turned away 68 of 70 shots in the team's last two wins.
