Komets fall to Toledo

The good news is that the Komets and their worst-ranked power play scored twice with goals from Josh Brittain and Garrett Klotz, but that was about the only positive storyline from the 5-2 loss to the Toledo Walleye on Memorial Coliseum on Thursday night.

Four straight goals in the second period gave the Walleye a 4-0 lead, and Toledo took 31 of the first 41 shots.

Max Campbell had the Walley's first hat trick of the season.
