Recap
The bear toss game is my favorite one of the season, and it didn't disappoint this year (new record 18,115 bears). The Bears continued their torrid shot pace from last night into the first period tonight, and this time it led to a goal much earlier (10:23 mark). Erik Burgdoerfer scored his 2nd of the season, from Zach Sill & Nathan Walker. After the 1st period, the Bears had the 17-9 shot advantage.
The 2nd period would be a much more even affair, as the teams had about the same number of chances. However, the Bears would get the 2-0 lead on a beautiful play. Connor Carrick scored his 5th of the season, from Sean Collins & Chris Bourque. After the 2nd, the Bears had the 23-15 shot advantage.
In the 3rd, the Bears' penalty kill would come up big with a couple power plays to deal with. However, Justin Peters wouldn't be able to stop every shot. With 2:07 left, the Penguins got it to within one. Tim Erixon scored his 2nd of the season, from Jean-Sebastien Dea. At the 1:06 mark, the Bears would put it out of reach. Nathan Walker scored his 5th of the season (2nd point of night), from Sean Collins & Zach Sill (both 2nd assists of night). 5 seconds later, the Bears would get another empty net goal. Chris Bourque scored his 8th of the season (2nd point of night), from Chandler Stephenson. The Bears finished with the 33-23 shot advantage.
