AHL Game Night 11/21: Admirals at Falcons

[BP Staff]

A wild west (Massachusetts) shootout.

NOR-6
SPR-7

Mike McKenna allowed 7 goals on 33 shots, including a super soft game winning goal, for the loss. He was every bit as terrible as his stat line suggests. McKenna has allowed 4 or more goals in 3 of his 4 starts this season. Now, it doesn't help that the Admirals' defense has been horrible. However, if this keeps up, you wonder if the Lightning organization will give the green light to take a peek at Riku Helenius.

If Jamie Heward decides to jet to Europe, I'm telling you, this Admirals team is so in trouble. He was named the game's third star.

Vladimir Mihalik was benched midway through the second period for poor decision making with the puck.
