Hamilton vs. Syracuse: 12/27/2008

[hab1fan]

Went to the AHL game between the Hamilton Bulldogs and the Syracuse Crunch last night and thought you'd like to see some of the action. Unfortunately, the Bulldogs blew a 2 goal lead in the third to lose 5 to 4. Denis didn't look sharp last night.

Great photo's.......thanks for sharing!!!!!!!

Frustrating loss last night. But the good news is Yannick Weber is starting to find the net a little more often lately adding another two goals last night. Glumac with three assist.

Patches and Chipchura will help to the team when they return.

I was disappointed Max "Patches" Pacioretty was called up. My daughter goes to Michigan and had seen him play last season and wanted to see him last night. I see they were back for tonight's game. Maybe next time.

The boys seemed to stop skating when they got the two goal lead with 14 minutes to go in the third and ended up playing most of the rest of the game in their zone. I got lots of photos of Denis as he was very busy.

Here's a photo of Yannick Weber who did play a great game.



Here's one of Glumac's assists. Desharnais buried it into the net a second after I took this.
