Lack of discipline was the name of the game at the Blue Cross Arena on Saturday night, as the Rochester Americans hosted the Utica Comets.
Rochester started off red-hot, dominating the first period against the Utica, with a 22 to 6 shot differential.
Only problem? Their undisciplined play led to four power play opportunities for Utica.
Simple mistakes would lead to three first period power play goals for Utica. Not an ideal way to start a game.
Rochester seemed to have Utica's number five-on-five in the first period but just could not stop Utica when they had been gifted the man-advantage.
