Wednesday, April 13: Charlotte 4 @ WBS 1
The WBS Penguins opened up a three game in four day stretch on Wednesday night against the then-new Atlantic Division leaders, the Charlotte Checkers. It was a tough test for the Penguins, and unfortunately they did not exactly pass it.
Two former Lehigh Valley Phantoms, German Rubtsov and Connor Bunnaman, scored their first goals for Charlotte on Wednesday against WBS to power a 4-1 victory. Also scoring for the Checkers were Zac Dalpe, whose 29th goal of the year at 1:56 of the first opened the proceedings; and Alexander True, whose 18th of the season into an empty net with 1:12 to go finished the proceedings.
