Rocket vs. Thunderbirds recap & highlights: ‘Unacceptable’ performance ends homestand

Former Laval Rocket goaltender Charlie Lindgren made 31 saves as the Springfield Thunderbirds beat the Rocket 5-2 on Monday night at Place Bell.

The loss ended a seven-game home stand over the last 11 days for the Rocket, and the team came away with a 3-4 record.

“It was a long stretch but we lost games we shouldn’t have,” said Rocket forward Danick Martel. “We had the lead, we lose the game, we get dominated in the second period. We have to regroup and try to pick up points. We missed our chance on this home stand to pick up points.
