Despite the return of forward Michael Carcone and a flurry of goals, a slow start doomed the Tucson Roadrunners Tuesday night at home against the Milwaukee Admirals.
Milwaukee handed the Roadrunners their sixth straight loss, 7-5, after the Admirals scored thee goals in first three minutes of action Tuesday in Tucson Arena against goaltender Ivan Prosvetov.“It’s unfortunate that we come out and we’re down 3-0 before the game even starts,” said Tucson head coach Steve Potvin. “Ivan knows that he’s gotta be sharper in those situations.
The Admirals struck first Tuesday when right wing Luke Evangelista scored 1:36 into the first. Then Admiral center Zach Sanford scored 23 seconds later. “I thought we played well, there was some circumstances there that we couldn’t control,” Carcone said. “ I’m not gonna get into that but as a team I though we played well.”The game featured four fighting penalties. The battle between Tucson forward Travis Barron and Admirals left wing Tim Schaller was so intense they sent the teams to the locker rooms to start the second intermission with 17 seconds left in the second period as the blood was being cleaned up.
It was Carcone’s first game for the Roadrunners since Dec. 23. His three-point night increases his AHL-best scoring total 45 points. He's now also third in goals with 18 and fourth in assists with 27.
