WALLEYE NOTES
Come from behind win leads Toledo to another win: Toledo added another win on its ledger with an exciting 5-3 come from behind win over the Fort Wayne Komets Saturday. Shane Berschbach and Abbott Girduckis each chipped in with a goal and an assist while Pat Nagle turned aside 39 of the 42 shots he faced for the win.
Getting off to a good start: With the win Saturday, the Walleye have started this season with back-to-back victories for the first time since the start of the 2012-2013 season when the Walleye defeated Kalamazoo and Cincinnati in the first two contests. The 2012-2013 season was a playoff year for Toledo as they finished with a 37-26-5-4 record.
Troock and Kromm go back to back: Branden Troock and Alex Kromm are the only Walleye players to find the back of the net in back-to-back games. Kromm's goal tied the game at two in the second period while Troock pushed Toledo's lead to 5-3 in the third period.
Girduckis picks up the points: After completing his college career, Abbott Girduckis joined Toledo to finish out last season and scooped up five points (3G, 2A) in his pro debut of seven games. With a goal and an assist on Saturday, the 24-year-old has produced nearly a point per game with seven points (4G, 3A) in his first nine pro contests.
Off to Missouri: Toledo's road start to the season continues with a haul to Kansas City for a pair of games on Friday and Saturday. The Walleye own an all-time record of 8-3-0 against the Mavericks, including a 2-1-0 record against them last year.
