Friday, the BEARS defeated Albany 6-4 at Pepsi Arena to begin the current three-game road swing. Boyd Gordon and Jared Aulin paced the offensive attack with two goals apiece. Dave Steckel added his first goal of the year as Kirk Daubenspeck won his third game in four decisions this season.

The BEARS begin the night four points behind Wilkes-Barre/Scranton in the East Division standings. BEARS bench boss Bruce Boudreau won 51 games with Manchester last season, and was the only coach the Monarchs had in four seasons until this year.
