Recap
A game that was going the low-scoring route like most of the Bears' games have been suddenly turned into the offensive output that we've been waiting for. It had to have been an emotional game for Bridgeport's starting goalie David Leggio, as he was just a Bear a season ago. Starting off the in 1st period, Stanislav Galiev continued his hot streak. He scored his 5th of the season, from Chris Wellman & Chris Brown. Each team received two penalties, and only Bridgeport was able to capitalize on one of them. Scooter Vaughan scored his 4th of the season, from Harry Zolnierczyk & C.J. Stretch. After the 1st, the Sound Tigers had the 8-4 shot advantage.
In the 2nd, the offensive chances started to increase. 26 shots were taken in the period, and that was helped along by the couple penalties in the period. After a Bridgeport penalty close to the end of the period, Hershey's power play master continued his success. Stanislav Galiev scored his 2nd of the game (6th of the season), from Tim Kennedy & Chris Conner. Hershey would start off the 3rd period with a power play. After the 2nd, the Sound Tigers had the 20-18 shot advantage. Each team had at least 12 shots in the period.
In the 3rd, the shots weren't happening as often, but with all the penalties, the chances were stronger. 6 goals were scored in the period. At the 2:46 mark, Hershey got the lead to 3-1.
