Gabriel Dumont and Alex Barre-Boulet were the game’s first and second stars.
Syracuse climbed over Cleveland in the North Division into a tie with Laval at 32 points. At 7-2-1-0 in their last 10 games, they definitely appear to have righted the ship and are now at three games over .500. It’s been a mix of getting more veteran help and the youth started to chip in, as well.
