The goal was Mackey’s first as an IceHog, and teammates including number 22 Sweeney and number 5 Pouliot joined the celebration along the boards.
Rockford added a second goal in the third period to make it 2 to 0. The live scoreboard credits Rockford with one goal in the third period, but the scorer and the exact time were not listed in the sources Maplestime checked before publishing, so this post does not name the scorer.
The Moose are the Winnipeg Jets’ AHL affiliate, playing on the road at BMO Center after a 7:00 PM CST puck drop.
What the Moose Need Now
The Moose need two goals to tie the game and force overtime, with the third period clock running down in Rockford.
Manitoba’s offence has been quiet all night, with no goals through two periods and one more Rockford goal in the third.
If the Moose cannot find the net, the shutout loss will stand as a flat night on the road after the club’s 6 to 3 win in the same building on October 30, 2026.
