The Binghamton Black Bears (2-0-0) erupted for five
third-period goals to defeat the Port Huron Prowlers
6-1 Friday night at Visions Veterans Memorial Arena.
The game was a rematch of last season's semifinals, with Port Huron
opening its 2026-27 campaign. After a scoreless opening period, Binghamton took a 1-0 lead at 2:23 of the second when Ivan Bondarenko scored on the power play, assisted by CJ Stubbs and Scott Ramaekers. Port Huron answered at 9:44 as Matt Graham scored, with Austin Fetterly and Luke James assisting, sending the teams into the second intermission tied 1-1. The third period opened with a disallowed Port Huron goal at 0:39, when Graham's apparent goal was ruled a high stick. Binghamton took the lead at 8:54 when Chance Gorman scored, assisted by Gehrett Sargis and Sam Dabrowski. Port Huron challenged the goal for goalie interference but lost the challenge, resulting in a bench minor. The Black Bears capitalized at 10:03 when CJ Stubbs scored on the power play, assisted by Bondarenko and Gorman. Scott Ramaekers added another at 11:21, with Sargis and Gorman collecting the assists. With Port Huron pulling its goaltender for an extra attacker, Nick Cyprian scored an empty-net goal at 16:40 with Nick Swain picking up the only assist. Gorman capped the scoring at 18:20 with his second power-play goal of the night, assisted by Stubbs and Bondarenko, completing Binghamton's five-goal third period. Gorman finished with two goals and two assists, while Bondarenko and Stubbs each recorded a goal and two assists. Dominik Tmej stopped 18 of 19 shots to earn the win. Binghamton finished 3-for-7 on the power play, while Port Huron went 0-for-4. The teams meet again Saturday night in Binghamton. |
