Bourque and Copley Help Bears Steal Game 3

PROVIDENCE, R.I — Hershey Bears forward Chris Bourque scored twice on the power-play, including in overtime, to give the Hershey Bears a win they earned the hard way. Hershey won 2-1, with Pheonix Copley making 39 saves on 40 shots.

“He’s been our best player since we got him at the trade deadline,” Bourque said. Copley was acquired as part of the Kevin Shattenkirk trade with the St. Louis Blues. “We definitely wouldn’t be here without him.”

The Hershey Bears now sit 2-1 in the Atlantic Division Finals of the Calder Cup Playoffs with the Providence Bruins, with game four coming tomorrow from the Dunkin Donuts Center.
