Steel Split Weekend

Bensenville, IL (October 11th, 2009) - After enjoying another victory and extending their winning streak to three, the Chicago Steel hoped to make it four on Sunday afternoon.  The Youngstown Phantoms had a different idea though, and they were the first to get on the scoreboard.  With the score 2-0 in favor of Youngstown, Patrick Raley took a pass from Andrei Kuchin and shot the puck through two Phantom defenders finding the back of the net.  The Steel were able to add another goal on the powerplay when Greg Wolfe was the recipient of great puck movement from Jamie Oleksiak and Alexander Krushelnyski.  The Steel were able to take the lead into the 2nd intermission when Alex Carpenter was able to tip in a pass from Sahir Gill, and they held that lead for nearly 20 minutes until the Phantoms were able to get three unanswered goals giving them the 5-3 victory, ending the Steel unbeaten streak. 

The Steel are back at home on October 30th when they take on the Cedar Rapids RoughRiders.  Puck Drop is set for 7:35 and tickets can be purchased by calling 630.594.1165
