Almost Perfect: Why the Griffins Are the AHL’s Most Exciting Team | 7 Minute Wings

The Grand Rapids Griffins just keep finding ways to win — and they’re doing it in historic fashion.
After a nail-biting shootout win over the Chicago Wolves, the Griffins remain nearly perfect at 22-1-0-1, continuing one of the most remarkable starts in the 90-year history of the AHL. No team has ever reached 21 wins this quickly, and Grand Rapids is still rolling.
Over the weekend, the Griffins won back-to-back games while scoring only one goal in regulation in each contest — a testament to elite defense, clutch moments, and outstanding goaltending.
Sebastian Cossa and Carter Gylander were sensational, standing tall and stealing two massive wins when the margin for error was razor thin.
When the team needed a hero, John Leonard delivered — again. The AHL’s leading scorer came through in both games, including the decisive shootout goal against Chicago, proving that this team has the ability to win in multiple ways.
This episode of 7 Minute Wings looks at why this Griffins squad isn’t just winning — they’re becoming the most exciting team in the AHL. From historic pace to lockdown goaltending and clutch scoring, everything is coming together in Grand Rapids.
The wins aren’t always pretty — but they are relentless.
🏒 Griffins win again.
🔥 Almost perfect.
📈 And still climbing.
