LAST WEEK - Wichita began the week closing out a five-game homestand against the Allen Americans. Kyle Hayton stopped 33 shots to help the visitors leave with a 2-0 win. On Friday, the Thunder hit the road for the first of two games in the Black Hills against the Rapid City Rush. Cedric Montminy scored twice in the second to give the Rush a 2-0 advantage. Taylor Cammarata cut the lead to one with a late power play goal, but Rapid City held on for the win. On Saturday, Wichita climbed back from a four-goal deficit to make it a 5-4 contest, but the Rush scored two late empty net power play goals to escape with a 7-4 victory.
