Crunch rally late but fall in the shootout

The Syracuse Crunch were back at the Onondaga County War Memorial Arena Friday night when the Bridgeport SoundTigers came to town. The Crunch entered the contest looking to extend their winning streak to three straight games and push closer to the top of the North Division standings.

The boys in blue didn’t quite get off to the start they would have hoped for. In the first 20 minutes the Crunch could only muster up four shots on goal. Bridgeport goaltender Stephan Williams easily turned all of them aside. At the other end of the ice, Crunch back-stopper Kristers Gudlevskis stopped ten Tiger bids.
