February 25, 2018 – Manitoba Moose vs. Chicago Wolves
Following a 2-0 win by the Moose yesterday they were back in action facing the Wolves in a re-match. Today was retro day and it began with a good old fashion chat between the two teams during pre-game warm up.
So teams are supposed to be warming up their legs during warm up. Looks like the Moose and Wolves are warming up their yappers. Should be an interesting tilt. They are really embracing the retro game concept. #AHL #MBMoose. pic.twitter.com/WPF3VIKpOm

Game notes:
1st
– Not much happening in the opening frame;
– Teemu Pulkkinen with a nice tip gave the Wolves an early lead.
2nd
– Moose gave up a shorthanded goal to give the visitors a 2-0 lead;
– A few minutes later the Wolves added to their lead with a power play goal;
– Late in the period Brendan Lemieux got one back for the home side to make it 3-1;
– It was Lemieux’s 16th goal of the season with assists to Buddy Robinson & Mike Sgarbossa.
3rd
– Brendan Lemieux picked up his second goal of the game (17th) just as a Moose power play expired;
– However the two goal deficit was short lived as Teemu Pulkkinen scored his second of the game to make it 5-2;
– Moose just couldn’t generate much and
– Brendan Lemieux doing some post-whistle chirping gets a ten minute misconduct.
Moose fall to 34-15-4-3.
