Gabriel Fortier and Daniel Walcott were the game’s second and third stars.
Another game that really was a one goal game deep into the Third Period that the Crunch couldn’t pull out. Also another game where Jack Thompson was out of the lineup and the team got outshot by a margin, tonight 39-30.
With Cleveland losing in a shootout to Providence today, Syracuse is now five points back in the division with a game in hand on the Monsters.
