After a week-long losing streak, augmented by injuries and call-ups, the Syracuse Crunch seem to be coming out of their nadir with some confidence, returning personnel, and wins. Winners of two of their last three, the Crunch have had the better part of a week off before heading to Utica for a day trip to play the Comets, they’ll then come home to play the WBS Penguins on Saturday.
Two of the team’s three wins have come against Utica and Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, with the Crunch beating the Comets early in the season when everyone was still getting their sea legs, and against the Penguins as recently as last week in the shootout.
