Corazzini, Thomas pace P-Bruins' tie in Worcester

November 1, 2003 - American Hockey League (AHL)
Providence Bruins News Release

Providence right wing Carl Corazzini scored his first two goals of the season, while also adding an assist. His third period goal was the game-tying goal. Defenseman Zdenek Kutlak tallied his second goal of the season on a first period power play, and center Ted Donato, making his P-Bruins debut, notched a shorthanded goal.

Goaltender Tim Thomas turned in another strong performance, stopping 41 of the 45 shots he faced. He is now 1-2-2 on the season, and is an unbeaten 1-0-2 against Worcester.

Prior to Saturday's game, head coach Scott Gordon named veteran defenseman Rich Brennan as the team's captain. The 30-year-old native of Schenectady, New York was the P-Bruins' captain in 2002-03 before being recalled to the Boston Bruins on January 14. He was selected to play in the 2003 AHL All-Star Classic, his AHL-record seventh All-Star Classic. Brennan could not participate after sustaining a season-ending ankle injury while playing for Boston on January 28.

The Bruins conclude the weekend when they visit the Springfield Falcons on Sunday afternoon at 4:05 p.m. All the action will be broadcast live on WDDZ AM-550.

The Bruins return home to host the Lowell Lock Monsters on Friday, November 7 and the Bridgeport Sound Tigers on Saturday, November 8. Both games get underway at 7:05 p.m.
