'Cats solve Monsters in shootout
December 17, 2004 - American Hockey League (AHL)
Worcester IceCats News Release
WORCESTER, MA â Jay McClement scored in the final round of the shootout to lift the Worcester IceCats to a 3-2 win over Lowell Friday night. Curtis Sanford was spectacular, denying the Lock Monsters on point-blank chances late in regulation and again in overtime. He stopped 27 shots overall, including seven in overtime and he held the fort on three-of-five in the shootout.
Worcester trailed 1-0 after the first period and 2-1 in the third, but rallied to even the score both times. Carsen Germyn put Lowell up 1-0, only to be matched by Worcester's Brendan Brooks in the second. Eric Staal's goal early in the third regained the lead for Lowell, but Jon DiSalvatore swatted home a Mike Glumac feed on the powerplay to force overtime.
The IceCats (16-8-1-2) will face the Lock Monsters again Saturday night in Lowell at 7:05 PM.
