Milwaukee scored five unanswered goals in a span of 13:09 to answer an early two-goal deficit.
Rockford scored an early power-play goal to take a 1-0 lead. Cole Guttman, camped in the slot, redirected a Brett Seney pass from the right circle into the net for his first goal of the season at 4:56.
The IceHogs grabbed a 2-0 lead at 15:20 of the first period when Austin Strand’s shot from the left circle found its way through traffic and into the net past the glove of Admirals goalie Matt Murray.
Milwaukee answered just 0:27 after the second IceHogs goal. Zach L’Heureux was able to create space in front of Rockford’s net and backhanded a rebound of a Kevin Gravel shot into the goal at 15:47. L’Heureux’s first goal of the season was assisted by Gravel and Ryan Ufko.
With the teams playing four-on-four hockey, Milwaukee tied the game 2-2 at 18:24. Ufko was able to hold off a defender as he skated from the right point to the left circle. Ufko dropped a pass to Adam Wilsby in the slot and Wilsby blasted a shot past the glove of Commesso for his first marker of the campaign. Ufko and Hinostroza were awarded the assists.
Milwaukee’s Anthony Angello notched his first goal of the season at 0:26 of the second frame. Kyle Marino threw a shot on goal from the slot that Commesso turned aside, but right to Angello on the left post. Gravel also picked up an assist on the go-ahead goal.

Hinostroza factored, once again, in the Admirals’ fifth goal. Working behind the IceHogs’ net, Hinostroza moved with the puck toward the left corner. He then made a drop pass to the right post where L’Heureux deposited the puck for his second goal of the game at 8:56 of the middle frame.
Rockford stopped the Admirals’ five-goal streak with a shorthanded breakaway goal by Frank Nazar at 18:30 of the second period. That cut the IceHogs’ deficit to 5-3.

Phoenix Suns Reveal Starting Lineup vs Milwaukee Bucks
PHOENIX — The Phoenix Suns are hoping to stop a four-game losing skid against the Milwaukee Bucks tonight, and they’ll have to do so short-handed.
Phoenix is down all of Royce O’Neale, Grayson Allen, Haywood Highsmith, Mark Williams and Dillon Brooks tonight due to injury. While the Bucks are also without Giannis Antetekounmpo, the Suns certainly aren’t near a full slate of healthy players.
In order to get back in the win column, Suns head coach Jordan Ott is banking on this starting five:
Suns Reveal Starters vs Bucks
- Devin Booker
- Jalen Green
- Collin Gillespie
- Jordan Goodwin
- Oso Ighodaro
Opening tip is slated for 7:00 PM AZ time.
With so many injuries, Ott says plenty of young guys can step up.
“It’s an opportunity for the guys that’ve been working, it was similar on the end of that road trip, same thing. We trust in their development. We see them work every day. Teammates see them work every day. So great opportunity for those guys and coming off the road trip, it’s good to be home,” Ott said. Names such as Rasheer Fleming and Khaman Maluach have gotten more run due to injuries as of late.
“It’s good to be home, playing, again, meaningful games here in March. I do think we’re playing better. So I think there’s a lot of positives we can take from that road trip. And these guys have some confidence, even the guys that got some minutes there to tail end of the road trip. They were in those big games, playing in big moments into the fourth quarter. So excited for all that to come together tonight and to be home.”
The Suns lost their prior four games all by eight points or less.
“You don’t want to lose four games straight. I think if you go into that road trip knowing it’s a tough road trip in March, it’s a six-game trip,” Ott said.
“The back-to-back from Boston to Minnesota is as bad as you’re going to get in the league, regardless of the quality of opponents, Boston was playing well. Minnesota was desperate, and then to play great with them. So I’m not going to say that we’re that far off. We looked at the schedule in September and saw that four game stretch.
“I think you would say it was a tough stretch. I think it’s we’ll take it as a positive that we were there in the fourth quarter in multiple games, and we got to find a way to close it out. I think it’s on both sides of it. It’s offensively and defensively in the fourth quarter. We got to be better. But there’s a tremendous growth on that road trip, even though it was 2-4 and I think where we’re heading is exciting — these last 12 games playing some of the best basketball we have all year, but there’s no doubt that fourth quarter got to be better.”

Milwaukee Bucks coach Doc Rivers after their loss to the Utah Jazz: “We were just, we played awful, didn’t play with any competitive spirit tonight. I thought the first group set the tone, I thought the first group came in. Everyone on the team in that group was trying to score. So funny, we had a shootaround today where the ball was moving, everything was second action.”
“At the end of the day, that’s on me to get them to play right.”
