Crunch Preview: Family reunion time as Syracuse hosts Utica

The Syracuse Crunch (18-8-2) look to keep their winning streak intact as they host the Utica Comets (16-5-2-1) on Friday night. Get familiar with the Comets because the Crunch will be playing them nine more times after this match-up. So far on the season they have already met twice with each team winning on the road. Utica beat the Crunch 4-3 in Syracuse on October 20th while Syracuse shut the Comets out 4-0 in Utica on November 16th.

The frequency of the meetups will be a good chance for the Gaunce brothers to get some time together on the ice.
