The wait is over, hockey fans. After seven straight road games to open the season, the Toledo Walleye are finally coming home to the Huntington Center this Saturday, November 7 — and they’re bringing a rivalry game with them.

Puck drop is set for 7:15 p.m. against the Fort Wayne Komets, the same team that edged Toledo 2-1 in the Halloween matinee back on October 31. The Walleye get their shot at revenge in front of the home crowd to kick off the home slate.

The Fish arrive at 3-2-0-0, fourth in the ECHL Central Division, after a weekend that showed what this team is about. Friday’s 3-2 overtime win at Kalamazoo saw Toledo fire a staggering 54 shots on goal — the third-highest single-game total in franchise history. Nolan Moyle scored the Walleye’s only goal against Fort Wayne on Saturday, and defenseman Marcus Crawford has two points against the Komets this season.
