(Norfolk Admirals)
CINCINNATI, OH -- Ty Reichenbach made 36 saves on 38 shots, but the Norfolk Admirals fall to the Cincinnati Cyclones by a 2-1 count on Thursday Night at US Bank Arena. With the loss, Norfolk drops to (12-11-1-1 26 Points) on the year and remains fourth in the South Division.
Manny Giladakis got the Admirals on the board first. Jake Wood gathered the puck in the neutral zone after a turnover from Cincinnati. Wood found Taylor Cammarata which allowed a rush into the Cincinnati zone for Norfolk. Cammarata found Giladakis in the right circle. Giladakis had his initial shot saved but knocked the rebound out of the air and behind Houser to give Norfolk an early 1-0 lead.
Norfolk goaltender Ty Reichenbach made numerous clutch saves throughout the course of the game to keep the Cyclones off the board. However, on their 21 shot of the game, the Cyclones tied the game on a goal from Arvin Atwal. Frank Zombo gathered the puck in the right circle after a battle along the wall. Zombo played the puck to Atwal at the point. Atwal skated into the slot, fired a shot which was redirected on the way to the net and slipped under the pad of Reichenbach to even the score at one.
Cincinnati sealed the deal with just under six minutes to go with a tally from Jesse Schultz. An Admirals player turned the puck over in his own end and the errant pass was intercepted by Schultz. Schultz got the puck and fired it over the glove of Reichenbach to give Cincinnati the late 2-1 lead.
Ty Reichenbach was stellar and made 36 saves on 38 shots and takes the loss while Houser made 19 saves on 20 shots and gets the win for Cincinnati.
