The IceCaps picked up just one point against the Albany Devils on Saturday night, in a heartbreaking 5-4 OT loss, causing them to slip to fifth place in the North Division.
Tuesday night against their divisional opponents, the Binghamton Senators, every point counted. The IceCaps needed a confidence booster after losing five out of six meetings with the Senators.
Both Nikita Scherbak and Bud Holloway came into the game riding a point streak. Scherbak with a five-game streak (1G, 6A) and Holloway with four (2G, 2A).
Last night's game marked the return of Morgan Ellis from his stint with the Montreal Canadiens.
