Last weekend was a little dose of reality for the two Boston Bruins affiliates, going a combined 1-2-3 over a busy weekend.
Providence, who started the season with 10 wins in 13 games, dropped all three of its contests to close a five-game homestand. On Friday and Saturday, the Lehigh Valley Phantoms (Philadelphia Flyers) won 4-2 and 3-2, the latter in a shootout. In Sunday’s finale, the Bridgeport Islanders (New York Islanders) came away with a 3-2 overtime win.
Maine took the trip to Canada this weekend to face the Newfoundland Growlers (Toronto Maple Leafs) for three games.
