Maine Mariners News Release
CINCINNATI, OH - The Maine Mariners fell to the Cincinnati Cyclones by a final score of 6-1 on Friday night at Heritage Bank Center. Chase Zieky's power play goal in the 2nd period was the lone offense the Mariners could muster.
After a scoreless opening frame, the 2nd period saw a total of three goals. Cincinnati's Justin Vaive broke the scoreless tie at 8:24 when he got loose in front and made a quick backhand move on Nolan Maier off a feed from Remy Parker. Maine used the power play to get even at 11:43, with Chase Zieky just squeezing one through Pavel Cajan with a shot from the left-wing circle. The Cyclones regained the lead at 13:57 when Chas Sharpe's shot from the left point skipped over Maier's glove. Cincinnati led 2-1 after two.
The Cyclones added four goals in the 3rd to pull away. Jacob Frasca's goal at 9:19 extended the lead to 3-1 after Christian Berger broke his stick, creating a 2-on-1. From there, the Cyclones scored three times in a span of 1:52 to pull away. Sharpe connected on a 5-on-3 at 11:31 to make it a 4-1 game. Tristan Ashbrook then scored back-to-back goals at 12:07 and 13:32.
Maine was outshot 27-10 in the game as Nolan Maier made 21 stops.
The Mariners (14-17-3-0) wrap up their road trip Saturday night in Fort Wayne, IN with a 7:35 PM faceoff against the Fort Wayne Komets - the first ever meeting between the two teams. The Mariners return to home ice for a Three Dollar Deweys "Threekend" from January 24-26 against Worcester and Trois-Rivieres, beginning with Pride Night presented by the Holiday Inn by the Bay on January 24th at 7:15 PM.
