WOLF PACK WEEKEND RECAP: MARCH 11th, 2024
By: Alex Thomas, Hartford Wolf Pack
HARTFORD, CT—The Hartford Wolf Pack scored three of a possible four points over the weekend, extending their current point streak to five games (3-0-1-1).
Thanks to their three points over the weekend, the Wolf Pack is tied with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins for third place in the Atlantic Division.
The Pack spent Monday morning traveling to Charlotte, North Carolina, where they will meet the Checkers on Tuesday and Wednesday nights.
Friday, March 8th, 2024, Vs. Providence Bruins (7-4 W): The Wolf Pack tied their season high for both goals (seven) and powerplay goals (four) in a single game on Friday night. The Pack roared out to a 6-0 lead, blowing away the Bruins to take a 5-4 edge in the ten-game season series.
Brett Berard scored the first hat trick of his professional career, scoring three times on the powerplay. He struck at 7:26 and 14:20 of the first period and made it 5-0 2:35 into the middle frame.
Berard's three powerplay goals tie a franchise record for powerplay goals in a single game. Andrew Hutchinson was the last to do in on February 8th, 2008, against the Bruins. Ryan Callahan had previously done it twice.
Berard's hat trick goal also stood as the game-winning goal, his team-leading eighth of the season.
Alex Belzile also notched three points in his return to the lineup, scoring a goal and two assists. Blade Jenkins and Nikolas Brouillard scored a goal and an assist in the win, while Matej Pekar, Brennan Othmann, and Mac Hollowell recorded two helpers.
Dylan Garand made 33 saves to pick up his career-high 16th victory of the season.
With the win, the Wolf Pack are now 5-3-1-0 against the Bruins this season.
The Bruins, who saw a five-game road winning streak snapped, are now 4-3-1-1 in the head-to-head matchup.
Saturday, March 9th, 2024, @ Bridgeport Islanders (3-2 SOL): Trailing 1-0 through 40 minutes of play, the Wolf Pack struck twice in the third period to take a 2-1 lead over the rival Bridgeport Islanders.
Belzile tied the contest 6:48 into the third period, jamming home a rebound for his 16th goal of the season.
Nic Petan, making his Wolf Pack debut, earned the primary assist on the goal.
2:56 later, Jake Leschyshyn scored his sixth goal of the season at 10:41 to give the Wolf Pack a 2-1 lead and put them in the driver's seat.
However, William Dufour tied the game with a shot from the right-wing faceoff circle at 12:03. Dufour's 13th goal of the season would force an overtime period, the second in as many meetings at Total Mortgage Arena between the sides.
The Wolf Pack got an early penalty kill in overtime, then nearly won the game when Brouillard set up Berard on a two-on-zero. Jakub Skarek made a terrific save, keeping the Islanders alive and forcing a shootout.
In the shootout, Matthew Maggio and Petan both scored to make it 1-1, entering the bottom half of the third round. Ruslan Iskhakov went between the legs and scored a beautiful goal to earn the Isles the second point.
The loss snapped the Wolf Pack's seven-game winning streak in Bridgeport and their six-game winning streak overall in the season series.
Quick Hits:
- Brouillard has been red-hot as of late from the blue line. In his first year with the Wolf Pack, the defenseman scored an assist in seven of the team's last eight games. He's also scored a goal during that stretch and is working on a four-game point streak.
- Thanks to his hat trick on Friday night, Berard leads the Wolf Pack with 22 goals on the season. He is second in the AHL in goals among rookies, tied with Tucson's Josh Doan. Logan Stankoven of the Texas Stars leads all rookies with 24 goals.
- Both Berard (T-5th, 39 points) and Othmann (T-7th, 38 points) are in the top ten in points among rookies in the AHL.
- On Friday, the parent New York Rangers (NHL) traded forward Turner Elson to the Minnesota Wild in exchange for forward Nic Petan. Petan, wearing #7, made his Wolf Pack debut Saturday night in Bridgeport. He recorded an assist and scored in the shootout.
- On Sunday morning, the Rangers announced a one-year contract extension for goaltender Louis Domingue. Over two seasons with the Wolf Pack, Domingue is 35-19-12 with five shutouts.
- Defenseman Zach Berzolla returned to the lineup on Saturday night, playing his first AHL game since November 25th, 2023. He suffered a lower-body injury that night against the Belleville Senators.

PRE-GAME: WOLF PACK AND ISLES ONE LAST TIME
PRE-GAME REPORT: WOLF PACK VISIT ISLANDERS IN LATEST INSTALLMENT OF ‘BATTLE OF CONNECTICUT’
By: Alex Thomas, Hartford Wolf Pack
BRIDGEPORT, CT – The Hartford Wolf Pack will look for their first four-game winning streak since November tonight as they visit the Bridgeport Islanders in the latest installment of the ‘Battle of Connecticut.’
The puck drop is set for 7:00 p.m., and coverage is available on AHLTV and Mixlr.
Tale of The Tape:
This is the ninth of ten meetings this season between the Wolf Pack and the Islanders. It is the fifth and final meeting between the sides at Total Mortgage Arena. The season series will wrap up at the XL Center in Hartford on Wednesday, April 3rd.
The Wolf Pack have largely controlled the season series to this point, posting a record of 7-1-0-0 through eight games. That includes a current five-game winning streak in the head-to-head matchup.
In the last meeting, on February 21st, the Wolf Pack claimed a 2-1 victory on home ice. Jake Leschyshyn opened the scoring 5:29 into the game, tipping his fifth goal of the season home on the powerplay.
Brennan Othmann extended the lead to 2-0, potting the eventual game-winning goal 4:14 into the middle frame. Othmann took a pass from Tyler Pitlick and wandered to the top of the slot, where he fired home his 14th goal of the season.
Matthew Maggio got the Islanders on the board 12:03 into the second period, converting a breakaway opportunity for his tenth goal of the season.
Dylan Garand slammed the door shut from there, however, making ten saves in the third period to cement the victory. Garand is 5-0-0 against the Islanders this season.
The Wolf Pack are 4-0-0-0 at Total Mortgage Arena this season and have won each of their last seven visits.
Wolf Pack Outlook:
The Wolf Pack won their third straight game on Friday night, scoring a season-high seven goals in a 7-4 drubbing of the Providence Bruins.
Blade Jenkins opened the scoring 3:48 into the game, tipping in a Matej Pekar shot to give the Wolf Pack a lead they never lost.
Brett Berard scored the first hat trick of his professional career in the victory, the first this season by a Wolf Pack player. Berard extended the lead to 3-0 with two powerplay goals, striking at 7:26 and 14:20 of the first period.
The Pack then exploded for three goals in a span of 1:08 to open the middle frame. Alex Belzile made it a 4-0 game at 1:59, blasting a one-timer from the top of the left-wing circle. Berard completed his hat trick with another powerplay marker at 2:35, then Ryder Korczak tapped in a pass from Pekar at 3:07 to make it 6-0.
Patrick Brown got the Bruins on the board 6:30 into the second period, but Nikolas Brouillard converted on a breakaway at 11:18 to restore the six-goal lead.
Oskar Steen, Brown, and Georgii Merkulov all scored powerplay goals to draw the Bruins to 7-4, but it would not be enough on this night to complete a comeback.
Berard leads the Wolf Pack in goals with 22. Belzile (15 g, 25 a) and Nic Petan (12 g, 28 a) lead the team in points with 40 each, while Mac Hollowell leads the way in assists with 34.
On Friday, the parent New York Rangers (NHL) acquired forward Nic Petan from the Minnesota Wild in exchange for forward Turner Elson. Petan will report to the Wolf Pack. The Wolf Pack also released forward Cameron Hillis from his professional tryout agreement (PTO), while the Rangers assigned forward Adam Edström to Hartford.
Islanders Outlook:
The Islanders also picked up their third straight win last night, doubling up the Springfield Thunderbirds by a final score of 4-2 at the MassMutual Center.
William Dufour opened the scoring 3:42 into the game, giving the Islanders a lead they never lost. Tyce Thompson extended the lead to 2-0 at 11:15, potting his second goal of the season.
Joseph Duszak got the Thunderbirds on the board 2:24 into the middle frame, drawing them within one. Grant Hutton, however, restored the two-goal lead at 3:16 of the third when he potted a shorthanded goal. That proved to be an important marker as it stood as the eventual game-winning goal.
Zach Dean drew the T-Birds back within one at 4:05 of the third period, but Maggio’s empty-net tally at 19:05 cemented two points for the Isles.
All-Star forward Ruslan Iskhakov leads the team in goals with 15, assists with 25, and points with 40.
