Trying to secure their spot in the playoff race, the St. John’s IceCaps started their six-game road trip off on the right foot.
With three games in as many days against North Division rivals, the IceCaps first took on the last-place Rochester Americans on Friday night that ended in a 3-0 shutout victory.
Sitting in fourth in their division meant they were holding the final playoff spot heading into the weekend. There was little room for error as they faced the third-place Toronto Marlies.

With much-needed points on the line, the IceCaps just couldn’t get ahead of the Marlies on Saturday night.
