The Syracuse Crunch took on Phantoms, Monsters, and Bears (oh my) in the lead up to Halloween. Unlike last week where they were left pointless despite a valiant effort, the Crunch did manage to collect all six points despite having to go into extra time in all three games.
Seven games into the season, can we draw any conclusions about the 2021-22 Syracuse Crunch? Maybe. This is a team that plays with a lot of compete. They don’t mind playing from behind, and while the offense isn’t setting the world on fire, it is spread out. Four players have multiple goals, led by Jimmy Huntington’s six tallies, while seven other players have potted one goal each.
