Moose end nine-game homestand with an impressive 6-1 defeat of the Senators

A win on Friday was snatched out of the Moose grasp as penalty trouble gave the Senators an avenue back to getting themselves into the game which they ultimately won in a shootout.

Lineup changes:

Only a couple of changes to the lineup with Nelson Nogier coming out in favour of 2019 2nd rounder Simon Lundmark. The net also went to Arvid Holm with Berdin backing him up.

Moose lineup:

Malott – Gustafsson – Poganski
Polei – Maier – Jones
Suess – Meireles – Eyssimont
Lynch – Hutchinson – Caron

Samberg – Kovacevic
Chisholm – Gawanke
Oligny –  Lundmark

Holm
Berdin

Notable:

If you ever wanted to see the view of the Moose seats you can win from participating in the Illegal Curve Hockey Show (or Post-Game Show) check our Glenn’s view from the game tonight. (See here).

Jets 2017 3rd Johnny Kovacevic had a goal (see here) and two assists. His first ever three point game in the AHL.

Two goal game for Jeff Malott who scored in his usual office (see here and here). That gives him 17 goals on the season.

Alternate captain Cole Maier scored his 14th goal of the season (see here)

Nick Hutchinson scored his first ever AHL goal last night and he follows that up with his second  tonight. (see here)

Fresh off playing in his 200th AHL game last night Mikey Eyssimont had a goal (see here) and assist in the win.

Which adds up to the Moose ending their nine-game homestand with an impressive 6-1 win over the Senators. They go 5-3-0-1 during those nine games and their home record is an impressive 19-6-0-2 on the season. It also gives the home side 30 wins as they have a 30-17-2-2 record overall which is good enough for 5th overall in the AHL in terms of winning percentage.
