season.
WHAT: Jackals Away Game #32.

the Jackals will pay their sixth visit of the season to WesBanco Arena.
Overall, this contest will mark the eighth of 13 meetings this season
and the sixth of seven on the Nailers' home ice. WesBanco Arena has not
been a friendly destination for the Jackals this season who hold a 0-3-2
mark in Wheeling. In the previous meeting, rookie goaltender Franky
Palazzese earned his first professional shutout as the Nailers defeated
the Jackals 5-0. Back on February 27th, these two rivals battled to an
exciting 10-round shootout, but the home team earned the extra point
with former Jackal Chaz Johnson netting the shootout winner. The Jackals
had to claw back twice in the third period, with goals coming from Ryan
Rashid and Kevin Hart, to earn the single point. The last time the
Jackals defeated the Nailers on the road was December 12th, 2013. The
pack scored four unanswered goals to open the game and cruised to a 5-2
victory. Elmira holds a 38-29-10 all-time record against Wheeling.
