We had a jam packed weekend and a whole lot to recap (and it was all good!) so we’re just going to dive right in. The Phantoms kicked off their Canadian road trip on Friday against the Laval Rocket and it was… well we’ll be honest, it was kind of a yawner. Lots of defense being done. But two goals from Phil Varone kept the Phantoms in it long enough to get to overtime, where a rush and goal for Nicolas Aube-Kubel sealed up the win.
They were right back at it on Saturday night in Belleville to meet the Senators, and boy was this ever a dramatic affair.
