The good news from Syracuse’s 5-3 loss on Monday was that they scored three goals. That’s equal to the amount on goals they scored in the previous four games combined. The bad news was that they couldn’t hold a two-goal lead and surrendered four goals in the third period. With the loss they are now 1-3-0-1 in their last five games. They get a chance to break out of the funk on Wednesday as they host the Laval Rocket (21-23-5-4).
Monday was a deflating loss for the Crunch simply because they just don’t blow third period leads this season.
