Sat., Oct. 18
WBS 4 vs STJ 1
At Mile One Centre, Penguins' Nick Drazenovic notched the game- winner just over five minutes into the first period and Scott Wilson, Bryan Rust and Zack Torquato all added singles to give the Penguins their second win over the IceCaps in as many days. JC Lipon scored the lone IceCaps tally of the evening. Lipon energized the crowd early in the contest as fought Penguins' Dominik Uher in the IceCaps' defensive zone to the right of goaltender Peter Budaj just 1:24 into the game, marking the second consecutive contest in which he dropped the gloves.
Tickets: Tickets for home games prior to Christmas, including Tuesday and Wednesday's games versus Binghamton, are now available at the Mile One Centre box office in-person, by phone at (709) 576-7657 or online at www.mileonecentre.com. Third Jerseys' a Charm: The IceCaps will be wearing their very popular third jerseys for the first time this season this weekend when they host the Bridgeport Sound Tigers at Mile One Centre.
The jerseys, introduced last season, were very well received, even garnering attention by The Hockey News.
Return of 'The Rat': Kael Mouillierat, who helped lead the IceCaps to a berth in the Calder Cup Finals last season, is expected to make his AHL return this weekend when the Sound Tigers come to visit. Mouillierat skated with the New York Islanders in a preseason game at Mile One last month.
