Steen Scores Twice as Providence Bruins Skate to 5-1 Win over Toronto Marlies
December 12, 2021 - American Hockey League (AHL)
Providence Bruins News Release
PROVIDENCE, RI - Oskar Steen scored twice and Jack Studnicka extended his point streak to four games as the Providence Bruins closed out the weekend with a 5-1 win over the Toronto Marlies.
Troy Grosenick got the start in goal and 28 of Toronto's 29 shots on goal to improve to 3-0-1-0 on the season. Providence recorded 41 shots of their own and were two-for-two on the penalty kill.
RYAN MOUGENEL, HEAD COACH
"This weekend says a lot about our older guys. Not everyone could see practice when we had three forwards, three defensemen, and one goalie. The common denominator was Aaron Ness and how he dragged everybody along.
"The juice is always good around here. We have a lot of good quality veterans who drag guys into the fight and don't let them off the hook. They make my job extremely easy in that regard.
"The other part of it is Jamie Langenbrunner, Evan Gold, and Matt Thomas did a great job of identifying guys in the ECHL that were playing well. I thought all of those guys came up and played really well for us and it wasn't easy. We basically had training camp all over again with teaching systems and it gave our staff time to dig into where our deficiencies were."
