Jon Fromi 0
With the prospects finishing up action in the Traverse City Tournament this week, the time has arrived to get cracking on the developing scene down Rockford way. Opening night for the IceHogs is less than a month away, believe it or not. Who will be skating for the piglets in 2018-19.

High On The Hog: Wish List

Jon Fromi 0
The Rockford IceHogs are set to be comprised primarily of prospects for the second straight season. With several defensive prospects signed to contracts this spring and a slew of returning forward prospects, there isn’t much room for veteran contracts. That doesn’t mean that there isn’t a need for them, however. It was very apparent that […]

High On The Hog: A Look At Forward

Jon Fromi 0
There were many new faces at forward for the Rockford IceHogs in the 2017-18 season. On a roster that went through some changes in the latter half of the campaign, there was a lot to cover in this area. I’ve previously cast a magnifying glass on the goalies and defensemen in recent posts. For now, […]

High On The Hog: An Eye On The D

Jon Fromi 0
The Rockford IceHogs were deep on the defensive side in 2018-19. It was in this area where the club had an abundance of experience to start the season. It only got better in the spring as some key pickups further strengthened Rockford on the way to a long playoff run. Back with a look at […]

High On The Hog: In The Cage

Jon Fromi 0
The Rockford IceHogs had a bit of a revolving door when it came to the crease this past season. Injuries to some key personnel made for some vertical movement for several of the goalies in the organization. As the first installment of some “in-depth” looks at the Hawks AHL affiliate, let’s cast our gaze squarely […]

High On The Hog: A Season In Review

Jon Fromi 0
The Rockford IceHogs had themselves one heck of a playoff run to cap the 2017-18 season. They came up a bit short of hoisting a Calder Cup, but still wound up as one of the last four teams standing in the AHL’s postseason tournament. (tap…tap…tap…) The piglets were eliminated by Texas in six games in […]

High On The Hog: Game Five Is Necessary

Jon Fromi 0
The Rockford IceHogs were able to extend their season a bit longer into the spring Thursday with a 3-2 overtime victory over the Texas Stars. The asterisk can be removed from Game 5 of the Western Conference Final. It is indeed necessary and will be at the BMO Harris Bank Center Friday night. Safe to […]

High On The Hog: Against The Wall

Jon Fromi 0
The Rockford IceHogs are still alive in their Western Conference Final with Texas. Barely. The Stars found a way to win yet again over a Rockford team that dominated large stretches of the contest. The IceHogs rallied with a late goal to send Game 3 to overtime Tuesday night. However, Rockford fell victim to another […]

High On The Hog: Down A Pair

Jon Fromi 0
The Rockford IceHogs headed to Texas this weekend looking to take at least a game at the HEB Center to open the Western Conference Final with the Stars. That didn’t happen. The first two games were rife with opportunity. However, Rockford dropped Game 1 on Friday and Game 2 Sunday. Texas leads the series 2-0 […]
