Milwaukee placed nobody on this year's All-Star team, unless you count Rocco Grimaldi on the second team for Chicago.

That should serve as some playoff motivation against the winner of the Texas - Moose play-in round, since they have 2 and 1 respectively.

The Admirals (46-22-1-1) close out the home regular season against third place Rockford (38-25-5-2), who is fighting for second place and home ice versus Grand Rapids. The IceHogs have Pitlick and Healey, as former Admirals.

The Ads starters are Askarov, Ufko, Del Gaizo, Egor, Parssinen and Gicewicz.

Egor (27) scores 5 minutes in, with assists to Gicewicz and McKeown. Roland got a plaque before the puck drop for his 500th pro game, and 126th with Milwaukee.

62 just punched an Admiral in the back of the head, who was face down on the ice. After 1 minute, Schaefer for Unsportsmanlike. Asky with a glove save on a shot from 5 feet. Amazing!

Rockford going full Slap Shot. Boarding, headlock, throwing an Admiral to the ice. Ads have a 2 minute PP. High Sticking and Mutter goes after the guy. Punches him a bunch and then face slams him to the ice. Two extra for Mutter and no High Sticking call. I thought it was going to be a line brawl.

Kemell with the Wayne Gretzky office pass to Svechkov to make it 2-0 with 1:18 remaining. SOG 15-7 Ads.

Period 2 starts with Rockford icing, followed by Gicewicz for GI. Parsnip with the reverse hit on the PK! Teply with a PP tap in to make it 2-1 Ads, at 2:13 into the period. Del Gaizo for High Sticking 30 seconds later. Killed it.

When the Ads are at ES, they look like they are on the PP. They are passing well tonight.
Gross (5) with assists to Wilsby and Svechkov at 7:58, to make it 3-1.

13 jumped Mutter behind the Rockford goal and after the whistle. He is getting 2 minutes Slashing, 2 for Roughing, plus a 10 minute Misconduct. He heads for the lockerroom with less than 10 minutes left in the period. Rockford killed the penalty, Ads had only 3 SOG.

Asky was turned in the crease by Teply. The ref called it a good goal. After review, it is a good. OMG, dragging the goalie around in the crease, then throwing the puck into the net. How is that not GI?????????? Officially, it is 3-2 Ads. Truly, it is 3-1, plus 1 for refs Jordan Watt (#83) and Jordan Samuels-Thomas (#42). WE HAVE BEEN DOUBLE CROSSED BY THE DOUBLE JORDANS!!!

The Ads pushing the IceHogs around after the whistle for a change! Roos checks Schaefer after the whistle. Both get 2 for Roughing. The penalties will carry over for 9 seconds into period 3. SOG 13-10 Ads.

Period 3 begins with Del Gaizo getting his feet taken out. Too bad that the puck was 60 feet away! No call. At 2:50, Schaefer (7) whirls around to score, assists to Del Gaizo and Svechkov. Ads just hit the crossbar, 2 feet from the left post, a minute after their goal. Rockford scored after the puck hit the safety net near me. That one should not have counted either. It is 4-3 or 4-1 depending on your point of view.

Kemell looks off tonight. He is missing shots and looks handcuffed by passes.
Del Gaizo was grabbed from behind and pulled down in front of ref #42. No call.

Wall scores on a deflection to make it 5-3 with 7:10 remaining. Gross took a slapper from the point to get that started. Ads called for slashing. IceHogs pulled their goalie with over 4 minutes remaining. Ads missed the net by a foot.

9500 fans in attendance!!! A sell out.

Last minute. SOG are 36-22.
10 seconds left. Face off and Egor scores ENG with assists to Parsnip and Gacewicz to make it 6-3!

Asky took a victory lap and blew kisses to the crowd after the game. Svechkov was the #1 Star of the Game.

The Admirals are leading Grand Rapids 1-0 on a PPG by Campbell (3) with assists to Schaefer (14) and Hanzel (2) half way through period 2.

Troy Grosenick has 20 saves after 2 periods. The Dcorps is Livingstone, Prokop, Ufko, Hanzel, Matier and Luce! The Admirals are playing the youngsters. Up front, Nolan Burke occupies a Center slot.

Rockford beat Chicago 3-2, so they are currently in second place as long as Grand Rapids loses in regulation.

The Griffins tied with a PPG at 7:44 of period 3. It goes to OT. GR scores on their 38th shot at 2:10 of OT.

Today's 18 skaters averaged less than 65 AHL games per man. Troy Grosenick has over 300 AHL games.

Both teams finished 4-4 on the season.
The Admirals totalled 97 points in their 72 games to be Central Division Champs. That is a .674winning percentage. The Admirals are selling gray T-shirts and sweatshirts that say that. I saw some at yesterday's game.
