Road game: Bridgeport at WBS Penguins

By Michael Fornabaio on December 19, 2018 at 5:00 PM

Who, when, whatever: Bridgeport at Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, The no-longer-Bank-Name-of-the-Day Arena at Casey Plaza, Wednesday, 7 p.m.
(Don’t you mean Mohegan Sun Arena?: What, Neon Uncasville?)
Watch: AHLTV pay-per-view
Listen: Mixlr audio
Twitters: Alan / the Sound Tigers / the Penguins / Nick Hart / Tom Venesky / Tyler Piccotti / Jason Iacona
Box score: Extant (R: South, MacDougall; L: Waleski, Knapp).
Storyline: The Islanders recalled Devon Toews this afternoon. Potential NHL debut to come. Bridgeport has been point hogs at home, but so-so on the road. And there are a lot of road games the next couple of weeks. Michael Dal Colle scored five goals to match five stitches. Tanner Fritz is day-to-day, but everybody else seemed ready to go. Well, except one: The Penguins got Stephen Gionta suspended for this game and the next two.
Meh, what else is going on: Worcester is back in Canada; this might be their box in Brampton. One Josh Ho-Sang scored a goal last night in the desert. Charlotte is off tonight after losing in overtime to Utica last night. Newtown’s Melissa Samoskevich went second overall in the NWHL draft to the Connecticut Whale.
Aren’t you supposed to be doing something else: Four high school hockey games tonight include two top-10 teams, so almost assuredly, yes.
If this were a regular blog post, what word or phrase would follow “More” at this point? Tossup between “later” and “Friday, unless warranted.”
