Tonight, it's the Lightning vs the Habs...AHL style. The Bulldogs (33-34-1-7) will look to clinch 4th in their division (aka, not last) as they host the Crunch (30-32-4-9) who also find themselves on the outside looking in for the postseason. It's the final game for both teams this year.

Projected Syracuse Lines:

Erne - Connolly - Marchessault

Ikonen - Namestnikov - Gourde

Smith - Richard - Rankin

Labrie - Olson - Vermin

Cote - Witkowski

Korobov - Sergeev

Mormina - Landry

Desjardins

Projected Hamilton Lines:

Sorkin - Andrighetto - Thomas

Tarnasky - Dumont - Blunden

St. Pierre - Macenauer - Leblanc

Nevins - Nattinen - Fournier

Beaulieu - Drewiske

Chouinard - Pateryn

McIver - Schiestel

14seconds in and Nevins in his 3rd pro bout! Here we go.

Blunden gift wraps a goal for Beaulieu, 1-0 dogs and Tokarski gets Assist on the PP goal. Gets his 1st point in last game of year. :thumbs_up:

(ex dog/hab Greg Stewart gets Allan Cup OT winner today).

I'll give credit to Nevins, he knows he's trying to make an impression for next year to try to avoid going to the ECHL. Being the 4th line pugilist is his best shot at staying.

kind of sad as the Crunch's first and second goals were deflections off our skates. That's the way the year has gone. Just one correction to the winning Allan Cup goal. Stewart got the assist as he sent it back for (AHL-ECHL vet) Randy Rowe who shot it through a screen (which was mainly Greg Stewart). After the game, Jason Ward, Jay McKee, Nick Smith and Ryan Christie all announced their retirements. Will have to see if second thoughts develop over the summer. Ex Dog Kevin Bolibruck (Edmonton Prospect) was very steady on D also.

Back to the Dogs-always hard to explain over 7,000 fans for a nothing game. Also, a few folks a little ticked off that they pulled off the bait and switch re the Jerseys Off our Back contest. For last night, they wore a cheaper jersey (I won one last year-same deal) with no shoulder patches, no Pepsi crest, lighter material, and that's what the contest winner's got, not what was worn during the regular season. To add insult to injury, they mentioned that the jerseys worn during the season would likely be auctioned off during the summer.

-other news-I guess you've heard the Calgary is folding their tent in Abbotsford and likely moving to Adirondack. Philly is moving the Phantoms from Adirondack (Saratoga Springs????) to Allentown, PA next year. And next year is the last season for the Ice Caps-even with capacity crowds almost every game, they are losing too much $$$$$ on travel expenses

Just caught couple minutes Allan Cup, and could of sworn DW said Stewart scored (I must of just misheard what he said).

And yes was a small arena
