The Wranglers left Nevada winless after dropping a 2-1 decision to the Henderson Silver Knights in a Saturday night shoot out.

Sam Honzek opened the scoring for the Wranglers before Mason Morelli tied it up two minutes later.

The Wranglers return home to prepare for a weekend matchup with the Ontario Reign on Saturday and Monday.
