And Utica scores twice within a minute to tie it up. Amerks have been stuck in their zone all period. All the momentum is with Utica now.

Utica is starting to pick it up. Missed an open net on a rebound. Amerks are getting beat to loose pucks. And Utica scores off a faceoff. 🙄

Utica looks a bit rusty. I expect they’ll pick it up. Amerks need to keep the speed going.

JJP with the PP one timer, 2-0 Amerks.

Another goalie out as Colorado’s Kuemper got a stick blade in his face that went through his mask cage.

Probably to maximize crowd with a Saturday game. Plus Wed in Utica there’s a Medieval Fine Arts & Crafts Market Faire, Thurs is a Tai Chi class at the library, and Fri there’s a Rummage and Homemade Apple Pie Sale.

Binghamton had the Black Bears in the FPHL this season. It’s a weekend league a level below the ECHL, but they still averaged around 1,900 fans.

Glad that’s over. I didn’t think they’d win game 3. I don’t give them much of a chance vs Utica, but at least they’ll get playoff experience.

YESSSSS!

Quinn has been quiet. Last couple of shifts he was with Krebs and Peterka.

Wheels coming off. Those wasted PPs in 1st.

Double minor to Fitz. 😡 Killed off first, now another penalty. 5 on 3 for 1:33. 🙄

Amerks lost faceoff and Sens score. 3-2 18:00 left in 3rd.

Boston fans pounding on glass knocked it out and it hit the elderly penalty box attendant in the head. He’s being taken off on a stretcher.

3-1 Amerks after 2. Shots 23-15 Bville. I think the Amerks need another, it’s going to be a tough 3rd. They have trouble handling the big bodies when Bville cycles in the Amerks zone.

Yes, he’d steady the D against the aggressive forecheck. Artto with a strong rush up the right wing, cuts to slot and makes it 3-1.

Another sloppy PP wasted. Then sloppy coverage in D zone and Sens score. 2-1 Amerks 6 min left in 2nd.

10 min in 2nd. Dell coming up big covering for some D miscues. Amerks back to 4th PP.

Sens dominating 2nd, but giveaway in slot and Jankowski scores. 2-0 Amerks 14 min left. My son is in Australia watching the game. Must be a record for farthest Amerks viewer ever.

1-0 Amerks after 1. Shots 11-8 Bville. Don Stevens has a hot mike during commercials, so you hear him chatting. He just burped!

Another wasted PP, 1 for 3. Sens almost scored SH on 2 on 1. Now penalty on Amerks. 4min left in 1st.

My son paid the $9 for day pass. Amerks just scored on PP by Arttu R, from Malone and Krebs. Bville still playing chippy, targeting Peterka.

My son is checking ‘onhockey.tv’ to see if it’s streaming.

I was at the Amerks last OT playoff win in 2004. Game 7 in Syracuse. The Sabres management was in the section behind us. Crunch came down on Miller and hit the post. Amerks went the other way and scored. Best hockey atmosphere I’ve ever been at. Sellout game with over 2000 Amerks fans in Syracuse.

Cincy lost game 7 to Toledo 4-2. Bonar had 26 saves.
