HERSHEY, Pa. – Casey Wellman tallied a hat trick and added an assist, Chris Brown scored twice and the Hershey Bears went on to a 10-4 rout of the Worcester Sharks on Friday night at GIANT Center in Game Four of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals. Hershey wins the series three games to one.
Coached to come out with a strong start, the Bears jumped all over the Sharks in the opening period, striking for three goals on the game’s first four shots. On the very first shift, Kris Newbury knocked down a Sharks defenseman and was later himself taken out of the play, which left Dustin Gazley and Chris Brown alone to come in on goaltender Troy Grosenick.
