The Belleville Senators kicked off their road trip with two wins as the club crossed the border to play Providence and Bridgeport this weekend.
On Friday night, the BSens faced off against the PBruins with a bit of an unforeseen tandem in net with Kevin Mandolese getting the start and Nick Commesso serving as the emergency backup. Both Matt Murray and Mads Søgaard entered the road trip banged up and neither were able to dress. The good news is Mandolese showed up and filled in admirably, posting a 0.960 SV% in the 4-1 win.
The first period saw Belleville’s veterans get the part started with Jake Lucchini and Scott Sabourin getting the road team on the board.
