Recap

This game had many ups and downs, but the Bears just couldn't keep up the energy. 5 points out of 3 straight games is a good weekend. The stoppages were coming left and right with many icing calls throughout the 1st period. 6:39 in, the Bears would get the 1st goal. Dustin Gazley scored his 9th of the season, from Chris Brown & Caleb Herbert. 39 seconds later, the game was tied at one. Greg Carey scored his 13th of the season, unassisted. After the 1st, the Bears had the 10-6 shot advantage.

In the 2nd, a high-sticking call against the Bears would go against them, as the Falcons would score on that power play. Alex Grant scored his 8th of the season, from Dustin Jeffrey & Craig Cunningham. A 5 minute major penalty for boarding (and game misconduct) would go against Springfield's Laurent Dauphin, but the Bears couldn't capitalize on it. After the 2nd, the Bears had the 18-13 shot advantage.

The 3rd period would be filled with shots, and many shot blocks. Springfield was blocking shots left and right, but with 7:42 left, a rebound would go in to tie the game at two. Travis Boyd scored his 7th of the season, from Paul Carey & Erik Burgdoerfer. However, the energy from that goal would stop quick, as in overtime, it only took 41 seconds for the Falcons to win the game. Dustin Jeffrey scored his 11th of the season (2nd point of night), from Philip Samuelsson. The Bears finished with the 31-25 shot advantage.

Next Game: Friday at Binghamton, 7:05
