Turnaround win, Volume… how many?

So that’s two goals in four games deflecting home off defensemen. Two goals for Tomas Marcinko in four games. A goal and an assist for Brett Gallant in three games. A goal and two assists for Chris Langkow in four games.

A night when it took a while to get things going, and the fourth line gets two big ones.

“The fourth line was fantastic,” Brent Thompson said. “(They) were consistently strong the entire 60 minutes.” He laughed. “Now they’ve got to back it up tomorrow.”

They were outshot, dominated, for 27 minutes. It could’ve been 3-0; Klementyev jumped into the rush, but a turnover on the other side of the ice left him trapped, and it turned into a Hartford two-on-one that turned into a Kelsey Tessier breakaway from the hash marks. Kevin Poulin made the save on the backhander. And then a minute and a half later David Ullstrom comes up the right side and starts the comeback.

John Mitchell goes for unsportsmanlike conduct five minutes later, and then Jared Nightingale gets the stick up on Justin DiBenedetto, and then Ty Wishart gets his first assist of two when the shot hits DiBenedetto (five goals in nine periods). Tie game, somehow. And then Marcinko banks one in off Brendan Bell. And then Hartford comes back again, early goal in the third, short-handed breakaway off a turnover, and the Whale lead. And then Wishart’s shot again, with Gallant in front…

“I don’t know what to tell ya,” Gallant says with a laugh. “I just went to the net.” He says he has no idea where it hit him. “They can go off my teeth and I’ll be happy,” he said.

However they can win, I guess.

…..

Colliton’s assist on the Ullstrom goal, added at the start of the third, gives him 111 as a Sound Tiger, one more than Rob Collins. Just 22 more goals to tie Jeff Hamilton.

Klementyev took a Wade Redden shot off his leg in the third period and was limping around. Thompson called him day-to-day.

Prescout, and turns out the Phantoms are human. Four points for former Farmington standout Nick Bonino for Syracuse.

Kris Newbury has points on eight of the nine Whale non-shootout goals this year, and that’s only one short because Hagelin picked off that short-handed goal himself. That earned Newbury a call to the Rangers. Mats Zuccarello headed the other way.

An all-2008-09 Sound Tigers goaltending matchup in St. John’s tonight. The win to Peter Mannino over Nathan Lawson.

You can really ask your iPhone questions like this? And it comes back with answers like that? Jeez, all I can do is yell at my phone. “Why won’t you work, Celly?” And after that, it’s 50-50 that I can call somebody.

Speaking of, should call the office. More tomorrow.
