Crunch capitalize early to defeat Wilkes-Barre Scranton by a score of 4-1

After a fairly dismal effort on Satuday night that saw the Crunch get downed by a score of 3 to 1, the hometown team rebounded nicely to down the Penguins and complete the week with five out of a possible eight points.

It was Adam Wilcox between the pipes for the Crunch after missing the third period on Friday night, and all of Saturday, with an eye injury. The second-year pro and former Golden Gopher was in the zone from the second the puck hit the ice to guide the Crunch to a much needed win.

Wilkes-Barre controlled the opening minutes of play, jumping out to a quick seven-to-zero shot advantage.
