TRENTON, NJ - Johnstown winger Steve Cygan's power play goal with 4:40 left to play sent the Trenton Titans away with a 4-3 loss in front of 4,813 at the Sovereign Bank Arena.
Things looked good early for the Titans as they jumped out to a two-goal lead. Jim Henkel extended his goal streak to three-games with his eleventh of the season just 1:57 of the contest. Kiel McLeod made it 2-0 by sneaking a backhander through Morgan Cey's five-hold just 2:52 later.
The Chiefs would cut the Titans' lead in half with a power play by Brett Peterson at 12:15 of the period.
The, all by his lonesome, Dmitri Tarabrin allowed Johnstown to take a 3-2 edge in the middle period chipping in his fifteenth and sixteenth goals of the year in a span of 1:55.
McLeod made sure Trenton would head into the second intermission all knotted up as he picked up a loose puck on the penalty kill and wristed it home with 5.7 left in the period.
