Providence Drops Final Game of Road Trip to Syracuse 3-2
Nathan Roberts, CMO [email protected] 401.680.4734 PROVIDENCE DROPS FINAL GAME OF ROAD TRIP TO SYRACUSE 3-2 Syracuse, NY - The Providence Bruins were defeated by the Syracuse Crunch tonight by a score of 3-2. Jordan Szwarz and Anton Blidh scored for Providence, while goaltender Malcolm Subban provided 22 saves on 25 shots in a losing effort. Providence fell behind early when Syracuse forward Cameron Darcy scored just 2:14 into the first to give the Crunch a 1-0 lead. It was Darcy’s first goal of the season, assisted by Pierre-Luc Letourneau-Leblond and Dylan Blujus. Later in the period the P-Bruins had their first of 3 power play opportunities when Pierre-Luc Letourneau- Leblond was whistled for Hooking. Providence could not convert on the man-advantage, and the score remained 1-0 Syracuse. Shortly after killing the penalty, the Crunch converted on a chance to add to their lead. Yanni Gourde, assisted by Jeremy Morin and Henri Ikonen, registered his second goal of the season to increase the lead to 2-0. The two goal cushion wouldn’t last for long however, as Providence forward Jordan Szwarz found the back of the net at 11:32 to cut the lead to 2-1. It was Szwarz’s second goal of the season, assisted by Zac Rinaldo and Wayne Simpson. This score would hold through the remainder of the period, despite separate power play opportunities for both teams. The second period brought a continuation of the back and forth play, with the score holding through the first half of the period.

Two Goals in Second, Third Period Lead P-Bruins Over Devils 4-2
Providence Bruins Nathan Roberts [email protected], 401.680.4734 Eddie Pannone [email protected] TWO GOALS IN SECOND, THIRD PERIOD LEAD P-BRUINS OVER DEVILS 4-2 Albany, NY – The Providence Bruins defeated the Albany Devils 4-2 in their only Monday night tilt of the season. The P-Bruins got goals from Justin Hickman, Jake DeBrusk, Tommy Cross and an empty netter from Colby Cave while Zane McIntyre improved to 9-0 between the pipes. Albany had the better chances in period number one, but McIntyre refused to let anything through despite two Devils power plays. They would get one by him just 1:09 into the second despite being shorthanded. The P-Bruins turned the puck over behind their net to former Providence College hockey star Kevin Rooney who sent a pass to Max Novak. He scored the first shorthanded goal against Providence all season as the Devils went up 1-0. It didn’t take long for Providence to respond, as at 4:46 Justin Hickman netted his first goal of the season to tie the game at one. Matt Bartkowski dug the puck out of the corner and passed it to Hickman who fired a shot from the right circle that deflected past Ken Appleby. Sean Kuraly picked up the secondary assist as Providence tied the score. Providence took the lead at 11:42 while on the power play on DeBrusk’s seventh goal of the season. Matt Grzelcyk sent a pass to Cross who sent a shot that trickled by Appleby but not into the goal.

This is Tony “Wiseau” Abbott, and I’m excited to see that you downloaded Hockey Wilderness’ 2016 Offseason Trail Guide. We’re hoping that you find it as a great and fun resource to get you through what should be a fun and exciting summer for the Minnesota Wild. This was a project that was many months in the making, and I want to take some time to acknowledge the people and resources that made this possible. I’d first like to make a major shout- out to Jack Van Thomme, who put in a ton of work to make this look fantastic. I’d also like to extend my gratitude to Joe Bouley, Chris Boyd, Barry Campbell, Aaron Holm, and Alec Schmidt- all veteran HW writers who contributed their talents throughout these pages. I’d also like to direct you to the fantastic sources of information we used while researching this project. For stuff pertaining to player contracts, salaries, and the salary cap, we relied heavily on General Fanager and Cap Friendly. The bulk of the stats we used for the Trail Guide came from Corsica, which is a brilliant successor to War on Ice (You can- and should- support Corsica on Patreon).
