Anchorage Wolverines News Release
The Wolverines outshot the Wilderness 38-31 but couldn't find the back of the net enough to secure the win, falling 4-3 on home ice.
Sam Evert opened the scoring with an unassisted goal, giving Anchorage an early 1-0 lead. However, the Wilderness responded with two goals before the end of the first to take control.
Midway through the second period, Xander Mullens was ejected after being the aggressor in a fight, leading to a Wilderness power-play goal that extended their lead to 3-1.
Andrew Karkoc cut the deficit late in the frame off a setup from Luc Bydal and Cole Frawner. The Wilderness added another in the third, but Connor Jalbert kept the Wolverines within reach with a goal in the final 35 seconds, just shy of forcing overtime.
The two will finish the series tomorrow, puck drops at 7:30 p.m. at the Sullivan Arena, with doors opening at 6:00 p.m.
