November 16, 2024 - American Hockey League (AHL)
Charlotte Checkers News Release
The Charlotte Checkers' road points streak ended tonight with a 4-2 loss at the hands of the Hartford Wolf Pack. After fighting to come back from an early deficit, Charlotte's efforts fell short as Hartford took the lead in the third period.
HOW IT HAPPENED
The Wolf Pack struck the first goal in the opening period, with Chris Mackey scoring to give Hartford an early lead.
Kyle Criscuolo evened the score later in the first period with a swift shot from the right circle, assisted by Ryan McAllister and Aidan McDonough.
Hartford regained the lead early in the third period, however, thanks to a pair of quick goals that made it 3-1.
John Leonard pulled the Checkers within one late in the third, but a long-distance empty-net goal from Casey Fitzgerald shortly after sealed the win for the Wolf Pack.
