Worcester IceCats News Release


WORCESTER, MA- Two firsts happened to the Worcester IceCats last night and neither was good.  Worcester lost in regulation at home for the first time, and they failed to score a goal, falling 6-0 to the Manchester Monarchs at the DCU Center.  Yanick Lehoux and Brad Smyth had a goal and assist each, while Mathieu Garon earned his fourth shutout of the season.   Manchester took a 2-0 lead out of the first period on goals from Lehoux and George Parros. Lehoux's 13th goal at 5:11 tied him for the league lead, while Parros bagged his first of the season at 15:45.   The Monarchs doubled their advantage in the second, beginning just 47 seconds in. Noah Clarke popped home a nifty feed, which originated from behind Worcester netminder Curtis Sanford's cage.  Brad Smyth then made good on Lehoux's back-door feed for his sixth at 11:16.  Dan Welch added a goal at 17:50 of the third to make it 5-0, while Mike Cammalleri scored with 22 seconds left in regulation to extend his personal point streak to nine games.   The Monarchs won their fifth in a row, and are now 12-1.  The only blemish on their record is a   4-2 loss to the ‘Cats in Worcester back on November 5th.  Worcester drops to 8-4-1-0, and will return to action Saturday night at home against the Lowell Lock Monsters at 7:05 PM.  The Monarchs are back in the DCU Center on Sunday afternoon at 4:05 PM.
