The Lehigh Valley Phantoms won again on Friday night, because that’s apparently what they do now. And defenseman Samuel Morin dragged a guy around the ice, because that’s apparently something he can do.
At the 8:29 mark of the third period, following a bit of a dust-up between the Phantoms and Rochester Americans that resulted in three other penalties, Morin dropped the gloves with Rochester’s Mike Aviani.
Aviani, a 23-year-old center who was playing in just his 17th career AHL game, weights in at just 5’11, 190 pounds. Morin is 6’6, 227 pounds. Kind of a mismatch.
