Atlantic City Boardwalk Bullies News Release
Atlantic City, NJ â Goaltender Jake Moreland stopped all 23 Toledo shots and Eric Nelson recorded his first professional goal with the game-winner to lead the Atlantic City Boardwalk Bullies to a 3-0 win over the Toledo Storm before 1691 at Historic Boardwalk Hall in ECHL action Sunday.
Nelson gave the Bullies all the scoring they would need at 11:10 of the first period when his slap shot from the outer-rim of the right-wing circle beat Toledo goalie Scott Fankhouser along the ice for a 1-0 advantage. Brad Both increased the lead to 2-0 at 18:06 of the first, taking a beautiful pass across the crease from Ian Walterson and tipping it by Fankhouser.
Rob McFeeters added some insurance with an empty-net goal at 19:26 of the third period to make the final score 3-0.
