Tough Road Weekend
Story By: Chris Babb
Bensenville, IL (November 15, 2009) -  The Chicago Steel (8-5-2) came into Ann Arbor looking to halt a three game road losing streak which dates back to November 6th against Fargo.

The Ann Arbor Igloo treated the Steel well on their last visit, a Chicago victory 5-1 to open the season way back on October 2nd.

Steel goalie Nick Pisellini (Western Michigan) was back in goal after taking Friday night off against Youngstown.

The Steel offense was hard pressed to manage much of an attack with merely nine shots on goal against Team USA’s Jack Campbell through the first two periods.

Pisellini did his best to keep the Steel in it for the majority of the game, having turned away 26 straight shots by USA. However, the levy broke in the 3rd period when Team USA scored all four of their goals within the first nine minutes.

 The 4-0 shutout is the Steel’s fourth straight loss away from the Edge Ice Arena.

The Steel will now head home looking to rebound when they play host to Waterloo Friday November 20th.

Tickets can be purchased by calling the Chicago Steel ticket office at (630) 594-1165.
