Two goals in 32 seconds early in the third period provided all the goal scoring the Springfield Thunderbirds needed as they defeated the Laval Rocket 5-2 on Saturday night in Springfield.
The game was tied at 1-1 entering the third period when Austin Osmanski scored his first goal of the season and that was followed up by Martin Frk scoring to make it 3-1. Less than two minutes after Frk’s goal, Hugh McGing scored to make it 4-1 and really put the game out of reach for the Rocket, who won the first of two back-to-back games on the road on Friday.
