Atlantic City Boardwalk Bullies News Release
Atlantic City, NJ â Luke Curtin tallied a goal and an assist and Jake Moreland made 30 saves to lead the Atlantic City Boardwalk Bullies to a 3-1 victory over the Dayton Bombers before 1423 at Historic Boardwalk Hall in ECHL action Tuesday. The win is Atlantic City's fifth in a row.
Brett Nowak opened the scoring at 17:37 of the first period when he took a feed from Luke Curtin at the left-wing circle and slapped the puck through Bombers goalie Michael Ayers' pads to give Atlantic City a 1-0 lead.
Dayton would tally the equalizer at 14:38 of the second as Matt Herneisen picked up Alex Johnstone's rebound in the slot and ripped a backhander past Bullies goaltender Jake Moreland to tie the score 1-1.
Curtin gave the Bullies the lead for good with a power play tally at 5:29 of the third period. From the rim of the right-wing circle, Curtin's slap shot along the ice deflected off of Ayers, popped into the air over the goaltender, and rolled into the net to give Atlantic City a 2-1 advantage. Derek Edwardson would give the Bullies some insurance at 7:06 of the third period, beating Ayers over the right shoulder from the slot to tally the final goal in the 3-1 win.
Atlantic City out-shot Dayton 41-31. Moreland made 30 saves to earn his 6th win of the season. The Bullies went 1-3 on the power play.
