WHEELING, W. Va. - Sahir Gill and Riley Brace scored in the first period and t he host Wheeling Nailers (4-2-0) went on to defeat the Quad City Mallards (3-3-2) 2-1 Friday night.
The Nailers were on the power play when Gill pounced on a loose puck in the slot to open the scoring at 10:53 of the opening period.
With just 6.5 seconds left in the first, Brace doubled the Wheeling lead with what proved to be the game winner from the right wing circle.
