The St. John’s IceCaps won two big games this past weekend thanks to back-to-back shutouts by Zachary Fucale and Charlie Lindgren. Collecting four out of six points, combined with key losses by the Utica Comets and Albany Devils, the IceCaps took control of their own destiny with very few games remaining.
