The IceCaps face elimination after Wednesday’s defeat to the Crunch.

The St. John’s IceCaps are headed into game four of their best-of-five series against the Syracuse Crunch with their backs against the wall.

With the entire Montreal Canadiens front office looking from the stands, the IceCaps fell 3-2 to the Crunch in game three. Looking down on Sylvain Lefebvre and his troops were General Manager Marc Bergevin, Senior VP Rick Dudley, Assistant General Manager Larry Carriere, VP of Player Personnel Trevor Timmins, Director of Player Development Martin Lapointe, Canadiens Head Coach Claude Julien, and Pro Scout Mark Mowers.

What they saw was a team that gave up two early goals, but fought hard to fight back and tie the game on goals by Zach Redmond and Stefan Matteau.
