Reichel Dominates Against Wolves
In the IceHogs 8-0 victory over the Wolves on Jan 7, Rockford forward Lukas Reichel led the way with two goals and two assists for four points in the contest. Reichel was the first skater to register a four-point game since Spencer Abbott netted two goals and two assists vs. Milwaukee on Apr. 7, 2015.
