Rockford, IL --- The Rockford IceHogs scored three times in the third period to rally from a 1-0 deficit in a 3-2 win over the Iowa Stars Sunday at the Rockford MetroCentre.

The Stars, who had rallied from being down 2-1 entering the third period to beat the IceHogs Saturday night at Wells Fargo Arena, will take Monday off before hosting the Quad City Flames Tuesday night at 7:07.

Tommy Wandell scored his 7th goal of the season as the Stars converted a four-on-two break. James Neal's shot was kicked out by goalie Corey Crawford right to Wandell on the left wing. Rockford would then start the third with three goals in the first 5:09 of the period. Perttu Lindgren cut the lead to 3-2 with a laser wrist shot from the high slot with 6:12 remaining for his eighth tally.

Defenseman Trevor Ludwig notched his first pro point with an assist on Lindgren's goal in his second game since signing an ATO with the Stars this week.
