Recap


A good rebound win from last night. Pheonix Copley (who was called Philipp Grubauer in the three stars) had a great performance to lead the team. Neither team would have much going in the 1st, and there would be no scoring until the 2nd period. In that period, the Bears would get on the board early (2:41 mark) on a power play goal from the power play master. Stanislav Galiev scored his 25th of the season, from Tim Kennedy & Chris Conner. In the 3rd period, the Bears penalty kill would rise to the challenge again and keep the lead. The Bears would finish off the game with an empty-net goal with 1:06 remaining. Casey Wellman scored his 24th of the season, from Cameron Schilling. Pheonix Copley finished with the 25-save shutout (Bears had 29 shots).


Next Game: Friday at St. John's, 6:00


Note: This is the last time the Bears will be playing in Norfolk. Norfolk's team is moving to become the San Diego Gulls as part of the brand-new West Division in the AHL. The "Norfolk Admirals" name will continue as a new ECHL team.
