It got a little crazy in the final frame, and unfortunately the Utica Comets weren’t able to hang on to a 2 goal lead, giving up the tying goal with under 2 minutes to go before Providence was able to triumph in the shootout, giving them a 5-4 victory over Thatcher Demko and the Comets.
Ashton Sautner, Michael Carcone, Joseph LaBate and Dylan Blujus with his first as a Comet scored for Utica. Blujus also set up Carcone’s goal. Kenny Agostino was the only one able to score in the shootout on Demko, who stopped 37 of the 41 shots he faced.
