MILWAUKEE - The Milwaukee Admirals lost to the Manitoba Moose in a shoot-out on Wednesday, Nov. 13, 5-4. The game was played in front of more than 9,000 kids in the team's first School Day game of the season.
Fedor Svechkov’s goals were his fourth and fifth of the season and both leveled the game with the Moose. Then his shot from the point with just over 90 seconds to play in regulation was deflected by Reid Schaefer and past Manitoba goalie Thomas Milic to tie the score at four and force overtime.
In the extra session neither team was able to find the back of the net, despite a power-play for the Admirals. The game then went to a shoot-out where Manitoba’s Nikita Chibrikov was the only player between the two clubs to score as the Moose earned the victory.
