Recap
Five in a row! With how the 1st period went, I would have never expected this game to turn out the way it did. The 1st period had two penalties and no goals. At the 11:37 mark, Hershey's Caleb Herbert was charged with holding. At the 13:51 mark, Bridgeport's Mathieu Coderre-Cagnon was charged with tripping. After the 1st, Hershey had the 9-8 shot advantage.
The rest of the game had 9 goals and 16 penalties, and became the Kris Newbury/Andrey Pedan show. It was a very different game from the 1st period. Due to the amount of penalties that occurred, the rest of the recap will just talk about the goals that occurred. At the 2:53 mark, 3 seconds after a penalty kill, Hershey got on the board. Kris Newbury scored his 16th of the season unassisted. 5 minutes later, Hershey increased the lead to 2. Casey Wellman scored his 18th of the season, from Kris Newbury (2nd point of the game) & Ryan Stoa. At the 10:17 mark, Hershey made it 3-0. Kris Newbury scored his 17th of the season (2nd goal/3rd point of the game), from Cameron Schilling. At this point, it looked as if Hershey could coast to the victory. However, Bridgeport had other ideas. 23 seconds after the 3rd Hershey goal, Bridgeport got on the board. Alan Quine scored his 7th of the season, from Jake Newton. At the 14:18 mark, Bridgeport made it 3-2. Andrey Pedan scored his 4th of the season, from Justin Johnson. At the 15:51 mark, while they were on the penalty kill, Bridgeport tied it up. Andrey Pedan scored his 5th of the season (2nd goal of the game) unassisted. After the 2nd, Bridgeport had the 21-19 shot advantage.
In the 3rd, Bridgeport quickly continued their momentum, as they took the lead 1:31 into the period (and on the power play). Brant Harris scored his 1st of the season, from Andrey Pedan (3rd point of the night) & Jesse Graham. 4 minutes later, Hershey stopped the momentum and tied it up. Dane Byers scored his 13th of the season, from Cameron Schilling (2nd assist of the night) & Kris Newbury (2nd assist/4th point of the night). At the 10:23 mark, Hershey got the lead back for good at 5-4. Michael Latta scored his 12th of the season, from Chris Brown & Nicolas Deschamps. Hershey was able to finish with the 33-29 shot advantage. Hershey continues its 5 game road trip on Friday, this time against the Binghamton Senators. Game time is at 7:05.
Side Note: At the time of this post, Norfolk (8th place in the conference, one point ahead of the Bears) was tied at 1 with Hartford in the 2nd period. If Norfolk loses in regulation, Hershey would take the 8th place spot in the standings by a point. I will try at some point in the week to make a post that details the current standings in the conference.
