Vitek Vanecek Gets First Win of Season in Hershey’s 3-2 Win
The Hershey Bears are rolling right now, with points in five straight games, and two consecutive home wins, Hershey now has eight points in seven games this season.
Following up a 7-2 victory over Binghamton the night before, the Bears came out for Pink the Rink Sunday night against the Lehigh Valley Phantoms looking for a weekend sweep. The Bears were able to get that win, with some help from their goalie Vitek Vanecek who got his first win of the season after two quality outings this season where he could not get his first W of the season.
Sunday night’s goals came from Brad Malone, Jakub Vrana, and Paul Carey, to give Hershey the victory. Below, check out photos from Sunday night’s game.
