the B-Sens |
Binghamton took a 1-0 lead 6:06 into the first period when
Cody Ceci ripped a shot from just inside the blue line that
beat Wilkes-Barre/Scranton’s goaltender Peter Mannino
cleanly. Patrick Mullen and Stephane Da Costa were credited
with the assists on the power-play goal.
The
Penguins got on the board 12:23 into the second period when
Harry Zolnierczyk managed to push the puck past Binghamton’s
Andrew Hammond.
Just over two minutes later, the
B-Sens regained the lead when Jean-Gabriel Pageau wristed
the puck by Mannino pushing the score to 2-1.
Andrew
Ebbett tied the game once again on a shorthanded goal with
just over two minutes remaining sending the teams to the
second intermission knotted at two goals apiece.
Following a scoreless third period, the teams took the ice
for sudden death overtime. Binghamton appeared to have won
the game less than three minutes into the extra period but
had its second goal of the evening waved off. Minutes later
Zlobin carried the puck into the B-Sens zone and scored
unassisted to give the Penguins the victory.
Hammond
stopped 34 of 37 shots faced while Mannino turned away 27 of
29 Binghamton shots.
