Players to watch:

LW Chris Bourque (17) - In the last 9 games he has 2 goals and 9 assists. Hershey needs him to continue his consistent play.

RW Brandon Bochenski (27) - He had 2 goals last night and has 6 goals and 6 assists in his last 7 games. Those give him 11 goals and 12 assists on the season.
