St. John's IceCaps game recap: Scrivens struggles in debut

Related Topics: Sylvain Lefebvre, Ben Scrivens

Coming off a loss to the Lehigh Vallaey Phantoms on Friday night, St. John's IceCaps head coach Sylvain Lefebvre decided to give Ben Scrivens his debut for his new club. Unfortunately, it didn't go as hoped.

A Ryan Johnston defensive-zone turnover led to the opening goal from Lehigh Valley. Adam Wilcox threw a puck on net from a bad angle, which hit the skate of an IceCaps defenceman and beat Scrivens.

Five minutes later, another defensive-zone error lead to a Phantoms goal. Miscommunication between John Scott and Morgan Ellis led to veteran Tim Brent being left alone in the high slot.
