Belleville Tallies Two Overtime Losses
Following a streak that saw Belleville gather five wins in a six game stretch, the team dropped back-to-back games against Utica and Lehigh Valley this weekend. The slightly good news is both losses came beyond regulation, so Belleville still managed to grab two points. The other slightly good piece of news is both OTLs were in games against teams who don’t have much of an impact on their playoff hopes given that Utica is way too far ahead of Belleville for their points to matter while Lehigh Valley is in a different division.
This means a team chasing their playoff dreams have secured points in seven of their last eight, something Belleville desperately needs to keep that door ajar.
