During Hershey\u2019s march to the Calder Cup Finals during the 2006-07 season, a frustrated Binghamton Senators goaltender, Jeff Glass, skated the length of the ice attempting to take out his anger on Bears\u2019 net minder, Maxime Daigneault, but absorbed the brunt of the blows. On Friday night at the Broome County Veterans Memorial Arena, Glass turned the tables on the Bears when he frustrated them, stopping 30 shots to send them to their third straight loss, 5-1.<\/span><\/div>\n

The first period, despite not featuring any goals, saw it\u2019s share of action, including a 5-on-3 Hershey disadvantage for a full two minutes and current net minder, Daren Machesney taking a spill.<\/p>\n

Binghamton\u2019s two man advantage occurred after the tag team of Zack Smith, and former Bear, Chaz Johnson, plastered former Senator, Greg Amadio, to the boards in the Hershey zone. Alexandre Giroux, another former Senator, interfered with one of the current Senators after he peeled himself off Amadio. While the Bears were the still in the process of trying to touch up and get a whistle signifying the Giroux infraction, Amadio cross-checked Johnson, unsuccessfully trying to goad him into a retaliatory penalty, but successfully giving Binghamton the two man power play.<\/p>\n

During the two minutes of power play time, the Bears allowed only two non-threatening shots on goal, both off the stick of Matt Carkner. One of the reason that the Bears were able to limit the B-Sens to only two shots on the power play was the stellar play of penalty killing extraordinaire, Quintin Laing. Laing was magnificent in his role, blocking shots and clearing the puck, while staying on the ice for the duration of the advantage.<\/p>\n

Machesney, after stopping an odd-man Binghamton rush late in the period, a result of defenseman, Dean Arsene, being caught up ice pinching, was shaken up colliding with teammate, Keith Aucoin. After being tended to by Bears\u2019 trainer, Dan Stuck, Machesney stayed in the game.<\/p>\n

In the second period, trouble started early for the visitors from Hershey when Johnson, despite being denied by Machesney on the doorstep, was able to draw a hooking penalty to Amadio at 24 seconds.<\/p>\n

Longtime Bears\u2019 nemesis, Drew Fata\u2019s point blast, with 17 seconds left in the advantage, gave the B-Sens a 1-0 lead at 2:07. Peter Regin picked up the only assist on the Fata goal, muffling Bryan Helmer\u2019s clearing attempt, and then retrieving the puck and shuffling a pass along the blueline to Fata, who finished off the play.<\/p>\n

Seconds after scoring his goal, Fata\u2019s actions at 2:39 stopped Giroux from tying the game. Fata, after Giroux had penetrated behind the Binghamton defense, hauled down Giroux, which, in the eyes of the referee, Francois St. Laurent, warranted a penalty shot.<\/p>\n

On his penalty shot attempt, Giroux tried to beat Glass on the back hand, but lost control of the puck and never got a shot on goal.<\/p>\n

The Bears hit the trifecta when number 21, Graham Mink, on the team\u2019s 21st<\/sup> shot of the game, scored his 21st<\/sup> goal of the season. Mink\u2019s goal, like many of his others, was scored from the doorstep when he tapped in a rebound from a Giroux shot.<\/p>\n

In the final two minutes of the period, the suddenly offensive Senators struck twice within 51 seconds, to carve out a 3-1 lead to take to the locker room.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had open nets that we missed (in the period), and that\u2019s just the way things are going,\u201d said Woods, trying to explain the late period collapse. \u201cGuys were out of position or taking chances at the end of a shift and not making good decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the opening minutes of the third period, penalties to Binghamton\u2019s Matt Carkner and Neil Petruic gave Hershey a two man advantage for 19 seconds, their 7th<\/sup> and 8th<\/sup> power plays of the game. The Bears did not register a shot on the advantage, and also surrendered a short handed goal to Josh Hennessy, his 16th<\/sup> of the season after defenseman, Sami Lepisto stumbled over the blue line while backpedaling.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019ve got to get pucks on net. You\u2019ve got guys like Mink and Gordon standing in front of the net; if pucks aren\u2019t getting there, they\u2019re not getting a chance to tip them or a chance for a rebound,\u201d said Woods, whose team was also 0-for-7 on the power play during Wednesday\u2019s loss to Hamilton. \u201cWe\u2019re trying to make one more pass, and when you do that, and don\u2019t shoot the puck, we\u2019re not going to score.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hennessy finished up the scoring at 17:11 with his 17th<\/sup> goal of the season, a power play marker, giving the Senators the 5-1 win.<\/p>\n

Despite the stormy conditions caused by his team\u2019s three game slide, Woods found some positives in the setback.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think we worked hard,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s a very tough building to play. We out shot them and did a lot of good things, but we just gave up five goals on 22 shots.\u201d<\/p>\n

For those Bears\u2019 fans who are troubled by their teams\u2019 recent fall from first place overall, Hershey\u2019s head coach, who has been through trying times like these before, shares his thoughts on what it will take for his team to recover from their recent woes.<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t beat yourself up. We\u2019ve got to realize that we\u2019re a good hockey team that has a lot of talent. You\u2019ve got to try to stay positive.\u201d<\/p>\n
