The Newfoundland Growlers dropped their second game in a row to the Adirondack Thunder Wednesday night in Glens Falls, New York by a score of 7-4
The Thunder opened the scoring just 15 seconds into the game when Patrick Grasso tipped the puck behind Growlers goalie Eric Cormier. Tyler Irvine added another for the Thunder in the first period before the Growlers got their first goal of the game, a slap shot blast from Noel Hoefenmayer.
