Do it Again!

The Hershey Bears stayed alive last night in their first round series against the hated Baby Penguins. Trailing 3-0 in the series means that every game is win or go home for the summer for the Bears.

Last night in Hershey they did just that. They WON!! In overtime 3-2. Alexander Giroux scored 2 goals, including the game winner, to beat the Pens in Hershey.

Freddie Cassivi played his best game of the year last night. He stopped 32 of 34 shots last night to pick up the win.

The Bears actually took the lead with only minutes remaining in the third period. But with the goalie pulled the Pens tied the game with 19 seconds left to force overtime.

Apparently the Bears did not like that. Giroux responded by scoring the game winner only 20 seconds into overtime to send the series back to Wilkes-Barre for a game 5.

Game 5 is Friday night in Wilkes-Barre at 7:05.
