Looking to Rebound

Kalamazoo’s nine goal defeat to Wheeling on Saturday was the worst loss of the season, but it wasn’t the worst loss in the organization’s history. Back in the original International Hockey League, the K-Wings lost by ten goals in two separate occasions (Fort Wayne-03/07/82 and Flint-01/07/87).

Snapping a Streak

Kalamazoo enters the U.S. Bank Arena looking to snap a streak. The K-Wings are attempting to end a season-high six-game road winless (0-5-0-1) streak.
