last time teams met - Hershey won 3-0 in Hershey on December 7. Hershey leads the season series 4-0.
Players to watch:
Hershey:
LW Alexandre Giroux (12)- 5 goals and 4 assists in 2 games since returning from Washington. Now he goes up against the team allowing the most goals in the AHL. Maybe a few more?
LW Chris Bourque (17) - He has an assist in 5 straight games and 6 of 7 games. Against Norfolk this season he has 2 goals and 2 assists.
G Simeon Varlamov (31) - He gets the start against a very dangerous offensive team after 2 straight blow-outs. He needs to be focused and ready to play.
