ROCKFORD ICEHOGS GAME RECAP: Fast and Furious IA (3) RFD (4)
The Rockford IceHogs earned their second win of the 2021 season with a 3-2 victory over the Iowa Wild on Saturday night. They didn’t have much time to rest, because they were back at it with the Wild on Sunday at 4pm. The last time they had a back-to-back, they won the second game. They hoped to do the same again on Sunday. They did. A 4-3 victory over the Iowa Wild gave the IceHogs their third win of the season.

The first was Saturday evening. The IceHogs looked to get their second win of the season. They got it. 3-2 was the final score, and we all get to rest easy.
