Belleville Senators News Release


BELLEVILLE, ON - The Belleville Senators began a five-game road trip with stops last week in Milwaukee and Grand Rapids, earning a point over three competitive performances. Here's a recap of last week's games, before the Sens get set to finish this stretch away from CAA Arena with a pair of important divisional games with the Crunch in Syracuse, this coming weekend.

LAST WEEKS' RESULTS:

Wednesday January 24, 2024: Belleville Senators - 3 @ Milwaukee Admirals - 4 (SO)

The Belleville Senators continue to never back down, coming from behind again to earn a point in Milwaukee, with a 4-3 shootout loss to the Admirals on Wednesday night. Boko Imama scored early for Belleville, with Angus Crookshank and Tyler Boucher tallying late to force overtime. Kevin Mandolese stopped 4/7 shootout attempts against.

Friday January 26, 2024: Belleville Senators - 0 @ Grand Rapids Griffins - 3

The Belleville Senators controlled a lot of the play and were arguably the better team for some stretches of Friday night's game in Grand Rapids, but ran into a hot goalie and couldn't find the net, falling 3-0 to the Griffins. Grand Rapids goaltender Ville Husso was the difference, stopping 25 Belleville shots, as he played in a conditioning assignment from the Griffins NHL parent club, the Detroit Red Wings.

Saturday January 27, 2024: Belleville Senators - 4 @ Grand Rapids Griffins - 6

The Belleville Senators' offence came alive in Grand Rapids on Saturday night, but four goals weren't enough to help them get past the Grand Rapids Griffins, as they skated to a 6-4 loss. Angus Crookshank and Matt Highmore each had three points for Belleville and Josh Currie also scored for the Senators.
