He was held scoreless Wednesday in Milwaukee, but came back with two assists on Saturday night, helping the Bulldogs to a come-from-behind 5-4 win over Binghamton in a game played in Ottawa. Finally, Andrighetto scored two goals, including the game-winner in the third period, as the Bulldogs edged Toronto, 4-3, on Sunday afternoon.
