K-WINGS FALL TO FUEL AT HOME SATURDAY

Kalamazoo responds to push early in third, but Indy shows resilience for the victory.

BOX SCORE

KALAMAZOO, MI – The Kalamazoo Wings (13-22-1-1), proud ECHL affiliate of the National Hockey League’s Vancouver Canucks, dropped a tightly contested game across two periods to the Indy Fuel (17-15-3-2) at Wings Event Center Saturday, 4-1.

Both sides skated scoreless until late in the middle frame, when Indy notched a power play goal at the 18:34 mark. The Fuel scored again 59 seconds into the third to make it 2-0.

Then, Quinn Preston (6) scored shorthanded at the 3:51 mark to bring Kalamazoo within one. Josh Bloom (3) and Theo Calvas (4) assisted as Preston came down the left circle and delivered a backhand shot off a stick of a Fuel player and into the back of the net.

Indy recovered to score on the power play 48 seconds later. The Fuel added an empty-net goal at the 19:17 mark to ice the victory.

Jonathan Lemieux (7-13-1-0) was stellar in net, stopping 36 of 39 shots faced in the loss.

Kalamazoo hosts the Bloomington Bison (18-17-1-2) Sunday at 3:00 p.m. at Wings Event Center for Autism Acceptance Day.
