Calder Cup Coming Closer For Crabb

Posted by adn_aces

Posted: June 4, 2008 - 6:34 pm

Winger Joey Crabb of Anchorage edged closer to hoisting the American Hockey League's Calder Cup on Wednesday, when he contributed two assists in the Chicago Wolves' 6-1 dismantling of the host Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins in Game 3 of the Finals.

Chicago leads the best-of-7 series 3-0 entering Friday's Game 4 in Pennsylvania.

Crabb's good fortune puts a couple of other Alaska-connected players in a tight spot. Penguins forwards Chris Minard, the former Alaska Aces sniper, and Tim Wallace of Anchorage now face the unenviable task of trying to win four straight games.
