TOLEDO, OH – The Cincinnati Cyclones lost to the Toledo Walleye 2-1 inside the Huntington Center on Saturday Night. Cincinnati drops to 1-4-0-0 against the Central Division foe this season.
* Toledo opened the scoring just 2:12 into regulation when Sam Craggs stuffed in a shorthanded goal. The Cyclones responded ten minutes later when Zack Andrusiak beat Toledo goaltender John Lethemon with his 10th goal of the season.
* Lee Lapid broke the 1-1 tie midway through the second period. Defensemen Steven MacLean crashed the net, then Lapid poked the puck over the goal line.
* The Walleye equalized again, this time on the man advantage when Brandon Kruse steamed into the offensive zone and finished past Olof Lindbom. Adrien Beraldo scored the game-winning goal with 6:40 to play, while Orrin Centazzo finished it off with an empty-netter.
