K-WINGS DROP ROADTRIP OPENER TO EVERBLADES 

Kalamazoo and Florida skated scoreless through two, but the home team surged in the third period.

BOX SCORE

ESTERO, FL – The Kalamazoo Wings (7-7-1-0), proud ECHL affiliate of the National Hockey League’s Columbus Blue Jackets, went to battle with Florida (10-3-2-1), holding the Everblades to one goal through almost 55 minutes, but fell in the end at Hertz Arena on Wednesday, 3-0.

The matchup was scoreless into the third period until the Everblades opened the scoring at the 5:04 mark of the frame on the power play. Florida was able to add two more before the final horn sounded to close out the contest on top. 

Evan Cormier (5-5-1-0) made 31 saves on 34 shots against, for his sixth consecutive start with a save percentage of at least .900, and rookie Mason McCarty led Kalamazoo in shots with four.

The K-Wings immediately play their second of three consecutive games in the Sunshine State against the Orlando Solar Bears (5-8-2-1) Thursday at 7:00 p.m. EST.
