WALLEYE NOTES

Conference Series Bound: Toledo has advanced to the Western Conference Finals for the third time in Walleye history thanks to a four games to one series win over the Brabham Cup Champion Cincinnati Cyclones. After the Cyclones took game two in Toledo, the Walleye rebounded to win three straight in the series to close out the Cyclones. This is the second time the Walleye will appear in the Western Conference Finals as they lost four games to one to Colorado in the 2017 Kelly Cup Playoffs. Toledo made its first Conference Finals appearance as the Walleye in 2015 when the team lost in game seven to South Carolina in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Cincinnati Series: Toledo held the regular season’s highest scoring team (3.92 goals scored per game) in check by allowing just 10 goals in the five games. Over the final three games of the series, Toledo’s penalty kill was at its finest, allowing just one goal in 14 opportunities. Toledo outscored Cincinnati 15-10 in the series.

Goaltending Rules: Pat Nagle has been downright brilliant in the postseason with an 8-2-1 record, a 1.68 goals against average and .941 save percentage. In the Cincinnati series he posted a .936 save percentage with a 2.00 goals against average. Nagle is currently second among all goaltenders in goal against average and he is tied with Devin Williams of Tulsa with eight playoff wins. The 31-year-old has an all-time record of 36-15-6 in his playoff career with a 2.25GAA and a .919SVP.

Becoming a regular thing: Toledo saw 7,482 at the Huntington Center for Friday’s game four vs. Cincinnati, the fourth sellout of the playoffs at the Huntington Center. Toledo leads the ECHL in total playoff attendance, with 41,161 fans attending the six home playoff games, an average of 6,860. In Walleye playoff history, the Huntington Center has been sold out 12 times.

Put it on the Board: Forward Greg Wolfe has made his goals count in the playoffs with four of the six he has scored going in as game-winners. Wolfe currently leads Toledo in playoff scoring with 12 points (6G, 6A).

Tulsa is up next: The Oilers took down Idaho in six games to advance the Western Conference Finals. The two teams played each other twice during the regular season with each team winning once as Toledo won 6-4 on December 7 and Tulsa won 5-2 on February 1. Both games were played in Toledo as the Walleye have never played a game in Tulsa. Toledo went 6-4-2 during the regular season against the Mountain Division.

Top Line Power: The Tulsa Oilers feature the three top scorers in the Kelly Cup Playoffs with Alex Dostie (11G, 8A) and Stephen Perfetto (6G, 13A) both at 19 points while Adam Pleskach (10G, 6A) is third in league scoring at 16 points. Those three have accounted for 54 of the team’s 106 points collected in the playoffs.
