Recap


The Caps really need to keep their eyes on Philipp Grubauer. He's a special talent, as shown once again tonight with his 6th shutout of the season! Although Hershey had less chances, their chances were usually better ones than the Phantoms had. In the 1st, the play was pretty even although the shots say different. After the 1st, the Phantoms had the 13-7 shot advantage. In the 2nd, during a short 4v4, the Bears got on the board first. Dustin Gazley scored his 13th of the season, from Mike Moore & Kris Newbury. After the 2nd, the Phantoms had the 21-11 shot advantage. The Phantoms would continue the pressure in the 3rd, but the Bears would be the one to get a goal (at the 5:19 mark). Stanislav Galiev scored his 21st of the season, from Chris Conner & Steve Oleksy. Some tension would boil over, as a fight would occur between Hershey's Connor Carrick & Lehigh Valley's Scott Laughton. Philipp Grubauer would finish with 37 saves (Hershey finished with 17 shots).
