Second Period
NOR Ouellet, (8) (Dimmen, Devos), 0:53

Third Period

Radko Gudas was the game's third star and had a goal on the rare scoring play where 3 natural d-men figure in the scoring.

Richard Panik had his scoring streak snapped at 3 games.

You take solace from the fact the Admirals outshot the Pens 18-10 in the final two periods. They seemed to be absolutely shell shocked for about 5+ periods of play going back to the collapse in the opening game of the set against Albany. Unfortunately, Norfolk has dropped 4 points behind Hershey and are now tied with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton in the division.

Norfolk has a 2-game set against Connecticut on Friday and Saturday. The Whale sit atop the Northeast Division, so it's no easy draw for the Admirals.
