Recap
This game had a playoff feel to it. Seeing as it was between two teams that are in playoff contention, it's not a surprise. Philipp Grubauer was his usual strong self, but Jeremy Smith was just as strong. In the 1st, the momentum would be in the Bruins' favor due to penalties against the Bears. 10 seconds into the 2nd penalty, at the 12:45 mark, Providence would get on the board. Paul Carey scored his 14th of the season, from Joe Morrow & Zack Phillips. After the 1st, the Bruins had the 10-6 shot advantage.
In the 2nd, the Bruins would keep up their pace. At the 6:17 mark, on the power play, they would make it 2-0. Seth Griffith scored his 10th of the season, from Alexander Khokhlachev. At the 9:53 mark, also on the power play, the Bears would cut the lead in half. Tim Kennedy scored his 7th of the season, from Stanislav Galiev & Casey Wellman. A fight would break out a little later between Hershey's Liam O'Brien & Providence's Tyler Randell. The 3rd period would be controlled by the Bears, but Jeremy Smith would stand tall against them. The Bears finished with the 30-25 shot advantage.

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).

Recap
This one didn't have anywhere close to as many penalties as last night's game, but it was still an exciting one. In the 1st period, through the first ten minutes, it looked like it could be a low-scoring game. However, that changed in a 2 minute window. Providence got on the board first at the 12:12 mark. Alexander Khokhlachev scored his 12th of the season, from Steve Eminger & Chris Casto. At the 13:49 mark, the Bears would tie it up. Garrett Mitchell scored his 2nd of the season, from Steve Oleksy & Jon Landry. 27 seconds later, the Bruins got the lead back. Ben Sexton scored his 2nd of the season, from Zach Trotman. After the 1st, the Bears had the 12-8 shot advantage.
In the 2nd, the goal spree continued. At the 3:30 mark, the Bears tied it back up. Joel Broda scored his 6th of the season. At the 7:05 mark, they took the 3-2 lead. Chris Brown scored his 13th of the season, from Jon Landry (2nd assist of the night) & Kris Newbury. Later in the period, at the 16:40 mark, the Bears increased their lead to 2. Dustin Gazley scored his 11th of the season, from Kris Newbury (2nd assist of the night). It was around this point that the tiredness of another 3-in-3 weekend started to take its toll on the Bears. One second after a power play ended, 46 seconds before the end of the 2nd, the Bruins made it 4-3. Alexander Khokhlachev scored his 2nd of the night (13th of season), from David Warsofsky & Seth Griffith. After the 2nd, the shots were tied at 20.
In the 3rd, the Bruins completely dominated, even though both penalties went against them. They would have a 15-3 shot advantage in the period, and it all led to a goal to tie the game at 4 (at the 7:30 mark). Rob Flick scored his 11th of the season, from Justin Florek & Ben Youds. Even with that shot advantage, the game would continue into overtime. In the overtime, Jim O'Brien was the hero as he gave the Bears the 5-4 victory. It was his 3rd of the season, from Stanislav Galiev & Erik Burgdoerfer. The Bruins finished with the 37-24 shot advantage.

Recap
This one didn't have anywhere close to as many penalties as last night's game, but it was still an exciting one. In the 1st period, through the first ten minutes, it looked like it could be a low-scoring game. However, that changed in a 2 minute window. Providence got on the board first at the 12:12 mark. Alexander Khokhlachev scored his 12th of the season, from Steve Eminger & Chris Casto. At the 13:49 mark, the Bears would tie it up. Garrett Mitchell scored his 2nd of the season, from Steve Oleksy & Jon Landry. 27 seconds later, the Bruins got the lead back. Ben Sexton scored his 2nd of the season, from Zach Trotman. After the 1st, the Bears had the 12-8 shot advantage.
In the 2nd, the goal spree continued. At the 3:30 mark, the Bears tied it back up. Joel Broda scored his 6th of the season. At the 7:05 mark, they took the 3-2 lead. Chris Brown scored his 13th of the season, from Jon Landry (2nd assist of the night) & Kris Newbury. Later in the period, at the 16:40 mark, the Bears increased their lead to 2. Dustin Gazley scored his 11th of the season, from Kris Newbury (2nd assist of the night). It was around this point that the tiredness of another 3-in-3 weekend started to take its toll on the Bears. One second after a power play ended, 46 seconds before the end of the 2nd, the Bruins made it 4-3. Alexander Khokhlachev scored his 2nd of the night (13th of season), from David Warsofsky & Seth Griffith. After the 2nd, the shots were tied at 20.
In the 3rd, the Bruins completely dominated, even though both penalties went against them. They would have a 15-3 shot advantage in the period, and it all led to a goal to tie the game at 4 (at the 7:30 mark). Rob Flick scored his 11th of the season, from Justin Florek & Ben Youds. Even with that shot advantage, the game would continue into overtime. In the overtime, Jim O'Brien was the hero as he gave the Bears the 5-4 victory. It was his 3rd of the season, from Stanislav Galiev & Erik Burgdoerfer. The Bruins finished with the 37-24 shot advantage.

Recap
That was possibly the most I've ever had to write in a box score for one period. Going up until that point, there was plenty of scoring, but it was otherwise a pretty normal game. 1:59 into the 1st, the Bears got the early start again. Joel Broda scored his 5th of the season, from Connor Carrick & Liam O'Brien. At the 6:29 mark, on the power play, the Bears increased their lead to two. Tim Kennedy scored his 5th of the season, from Chris Conner & Connor Carrick (2nd assist of the night). Less than 4 minutes later, Bridgeport would get an odd goal to make it 2-1. Cam Reid scored his 1st of the season, from Matt Carkner. At the 16:05 mark, on the power play, the power play master would strike again to make it 3-1 Bears. Stanislav Galiev scored his 20th of the season, from Casey Wellman & Connor Carrick (3rd assist of the night). After the 1st, the Bears had the 18-6 shot advantage.
Until the 15:40 mark in the 2nd, there wasn't much going on in the period. At the 9:07 mark, the Sound Tigers would get within one. Alan Quine scored his 12th of the season, from Aaron Ness & Cory Conacher. At the 15:40 mark, it all went crazy. This says it all: there was a goalie fight. The Sound Tigers would get 84 penalty minutes (4 game misconducts and 2 misconducts), and the Bears would get 82 penalty minutes (5 game misconducts and a misconduct). Each team would need a new goalie, as the goalies were given game misconducts for fighting. Philipp Grubauer would come in for the Bears, and former Bear David Leggio would come in for the Sound Tigers. After the 2nd, the Bears had the 23-21 shot advantage.
Things would calm down in the 3rd, but there would still be a couple goals. At the 10:53 mark, the Bears would increase their lead to 4-2 with a shorthanded goal. Chris Conner scored his 15th of the season (2nd point of the night), from Tim Kennedy (2nd point of the night) & Matt Moore. The Sound Tigers would get within one at the 16:24 mark. Harry Zolnierczyk scored his 15th of the season, from C.J. Stretch & Aaron Ness (2nd assist of the night). That would finish the scoring, and the Bears would get the 4-3 victory. The Sound Tigers finished with the 30-27 shot advantage.

Recap
The point streak is over. It didn't seem like it would be after how the first period went, but Binghamton took over. In that first period, the Bears would start off on fire with two goals in less than a minute and a half. The first goal (at the 3:16 mark) was Casey Wellman's 17th of the season, from Philippe Cornet & Jim O'Brien. The second goal (at the 4:38 mark) was Tomas Kundratek's 3rd of the season, from Tim Kennedy & Chris Conner. Binghamton would get two penalties in the period, but the Bears couldn't capitalize. After the 1st, the Bears had the 19-13 shot advantage.
In the 2nd, Binghamton took over. At the 2:50 mark, they would get it to within one. Cole Schneider scored his 17th of the season, from Carter Camper & Shane Prince. Around a minute later, a fight would occur between Hershey's Cameron Schilling & Binghamton's Brad Mills. At the 13:24 mark, the game would be tied at two. Carter Camper scored his 8th of the season, from Cole Schneider (2nd point of the night) & Shane Prince (2nd assist of the night). On the power play less than two minutes later, the Senators took the lead. Derek Grant scored his 17th of the season, from Alex Grant & Shane Prince (3rd assist of the night). 3 minutes before the end of the period, a fight would break out between Hershey's Liam O'Brien & Binghamton's Darren Kramer. After the 2nd, the Bears had the 24-21 shot advantage.
The penalties would stop in the 3rd, but the goals would continue. At the 10:48 mark, the Senators would get the important insurance goal. Alex Guptill scored his 5th of the season, from Ryan Dzingel. With 3:35 left in the game, the Bears would get back within one. Philippe Cornet scored his 8th of the season (2nd point of the night), from Casey Wellman (2nd point of the night) & Jim O'Brien (2nd assist of the night). The Bears wouldn't get another goal to tie it, and the Senators would get an empty-net goal to seal the victory. Colin Greening scored his 4th of the season, from Alex Grant (2nd assist of the night) & Derek Grant (2nd point of the night). The Senators finished with the 33-29 shot advantage.
