Bembridge Scores Twice to Help Fuel Past Aces 3-2
November 13, 2015 - ECHL (ECHL)
Indy Fuel News Release
Indianapolis - Garett Bembridge scored twice including the game-winning goal to help the Indy Fuel (6-3-0-1) defeat the Alaska Aces (4-8-0-1) in the first-ever meeting between the two clubs.
Bembridge got the Fuel on the board just 3:01 into the game with a backhand that eluded Aces goalie Steven Summerhays (23 saves) on the glove side to make it 1-0.
After the Aces notched a pair of goals in the final 1:45 of the first period to grab a 2-1 lead, the Fuel returned the favor with two in the final 39 seconds of period number two. First Daniel Ciampini scored off a give-and-go with Alex Lavoie to tie the game at 19:21 followed by Bembridge's second goal of the night at 19:50, tipping in a Kevin Quick point shot past Summerhays to give the Fuel a lead it would not relinquish.
In the third period Shane Owen (35 saves) helped shut the door by stopping all 12 Aces shots faced to pick up his fourth win of the year - all coming at Indiana Farmers Coliseum.
Three Stars: 1- Garett Bembridge (2-0-2, +3, 3 shots) 2- Daniel Ciampini (1-1-2, +2, 2 shots) 3- Alex Lavoie (0-1-1, +3)
Power Plays: IND 0-for-1 AK 0-for-1
Notes: - With his assist on Garett Bembridge's second goal of the night, Kevin Quick now has assists in four straight games.
- Bembridge has points in eight of Indy's first ten games, and tonight was his first multi-point/multi-goal game of the season.
- Shane Owen has started all four Fuel games at home and is a perfect 4-0 with a .934 save percentage and has allowed exactly two goals against in each of those starts.
The Fuel and Aces go right back at it Saturday night at Indiana Farmers Coliseum at 7:35 pm on Guns-n-Hoses Night, a salute to fire fighters and police personnel. The Fuel will wear special jerseys to be auctioned off following the game with a portion of the proceeds going to benefit local charities.
