On Wednesday November 22nd, the Syracuse Crunch played host to the Rochester Americans in a back and forth contest that really highlighted the potential of the Crunch for the first time this season. After the contest, I turned to my friend beside me and told him that the 6-to-5 win we had just witnessed would be the turning point in the season.
While it remains to be seen whether or not the team can maintain their current level of play, to this point my bold prediction has been spot on.
Another week has passed and the Crunch’s win streak now stands at six straight, an impressive feat for a team that couldn’t get out of their own way just a few weeks ago.
