ROSEMONT, Ill. (CBS) – The Wolves blanked the Rockford IceHogs at Allstate Arena in Rosemont on Sunday, as they completed a three-game series in three days.

The final score was 4-0. It was the Wolves’ first home win of the season, and the victory also ended a three-game losing streak.

Ronan Seeley, Aleksi Heimosalmi, Noel Gunler and Skyler Brind’Amour all scored for the Wolves. Dustin Tokarski made his first appearance for the Wolves on Sunday and made 29 saves in goal.

Seeley took a shot from the top of the left circle and scored late in the first period, as the puck flew past IceHogs goaltender Mitchell Weeks, the Wolves said.

Heimosalmi then scored, midway through the second quarter, with his first score in the American Hockey League. A power play goal by Gunler made it 3-0 for the Wolves, sliding a rebound of Justin Robidas’ shot into the net last weeks, the Voles said.

Brind’Amour scored on a power play in the third, redirecting a long shot from Scott Morrow, the Wolves said.

The Wolves are now 4-7-1-0 for the season, while the IceHogs have fallen to 4-8-0-0.

The Wolves will face the Moose in Manitoba next Thursday morning.
