The Syracuse Crunch came close to pulling off the comeback in Game One against the Rochester Americans before falling, 3-2. On Sunday they pulled off the comeback as Gabriel Fortier tipped home a shot from Declan Carlile for a 4-3 victory in overtime. Brandon Halverson made 24 saves on 27 shots to pick up his first career AHL playoff win.
Like they did in Game One, the Crunch went down early to the Americans. Unlike on Friday, Rochester didn’t score on their first shot, this time it was their third shot, and it came on the power play.
