Mike Morrison made twenty seven saves for the win but lost his shutout late in the third. Blake Comeau had three assists, Ben Walter two.

Ct Post: Michaal Fornabaio's game coverage on Bridgeport's win has comments from Trevor Smith & Jack Capuano but also has a lot of Hershey's win and the big picture.

Ct Post: Michael Fornabaio had several in-game/post game blogs.

The bad news is Hershey won at Philadelphia Friday after trailing 2-0 so the number for elimination drops to one, they play again Saturday.

Only math that works from here is Bridgeport goes 2-0 and Hershey losses two games in regulation, otherwise the Sound Tigers will not be in the Calder Cup playoffs.
