Milwaukee Admirals fans and businesses feel the impact of 19-game winning streak
MILWAUKEE — What’s better than 18?
Both Milwaukee Admirals fans and local businesses will tell you 19.
That’s how many consecutive wins the team has as of Saturday, Feb. 24. It’s the second-longest winning streak in American Hockey League history.
The minor league hockey team is also having a major impact locally.
Drew Olsen is a manager at Major Goolsby’s, a bar and grill just across the street from the UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena, where the Admirals play.
“It’s bonkers in here,” Olsen smiled. “As the team keeps winning, people are noticing. We’re seeing some faces we haven’t seen before. When you win 18 games, people begin to notice.”
The business was packed with people Saturday afternoon dressed in blue and white to support the team.
“I’ve been to baseball and football games but this is my first hockey game,” Marcel Odell said alongside his girlfriend Amanda Cameron.
“It’s exciting to make some noise, support our team, and support the community.”
Other fans have been going to the games for years, like nine-year-old Anna Hodgson who was in the front row with a big sign.
She plays hockey for the Waukesha Warhawks and hopes to make it big one day just like her team.
“The Admirals weren’t doing too well last year, but this year they’re doing really good. It feels really good,” Hodgson smiled.
From the fans to local businesses, this winning streak is something to celebrate, not only bringing attention to the sport but bringing a community together, too.
“We’re still coming off of COVID-19. This still makes a difference. When you see full houses like this, it makes a huge difference for us,” Olsen said.
The Admirals now head to Michigan to take on the Grand Rapids Griffins on Sunday, Feb. 25., at 4 p.m.

Judge Michelle Havas sentenced Gladney to 29 years in prison on Friday, April 17. He was granted credit for more than a year’s time served and further sentenced to 14 years of extended supervision.
Arrested in Arizona after years on the run, court records show Gladney has also been ordered to pay the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office more than $1,800 for extradition costs.
Homicide investigation
The backstory:
The shooting happened in May 2020. Investigators said Gladney was captured on video apparently arguing with the victim, his cousin, outside a Milwaukee convenience store near 21st and Meinecke.
“It’s all on video, and it’s devastating for that family,” the marshal on the case told FOX6 when Gladney was profiled on Wisconsin’s Most Wanted. “You have a family member that shot and killed another family member.”

Prosecutors said Gladney walked away but then returned with a gun pointed directly at the victim and shot him. The victim died from his gunshot wounds at a nearby hospital. Multiple bullet casings were found at the scene.
Gladney went on the run for years. He was arrested in Arizona in January 2023, years after he was charged.
