Let’s take a trip back 2,837 days to April 17th, 2005. Eric Perrin is Hershey’s leading scorer after playing the end of last season with the Tampa Bay Lighting their Stanley Cup run. Peter Budaj has played almost 60 games for the Chocolate and White and Paul Fixter is the Head Coach for the Bears. But that April night in Bridgeport, CT, the Bears lost their sixth game in a row and was swept in their 3-in-3 series. That was the last time Hershey has lost three weekend games in a row. We are now at one day since Hershey has been swept in a 3-in-3 after the Bears fall to the Monarchs 4-2.

Just like last weekend, it was another long bus ride up to Binghamton to face off against the Senators once again.

It was the roughest of starts. To sum up, it was 3-0 Binghamton after twenty minutes. The Senators looked speedy and agile as they repeatedly danced around the Hershey defense. Braden Holtby was left to continually make saves from point blank range. By the end of period, he had faced 16 shots.

You know it will be an interesting night when Darth Vader drops the puck for the ceremonial face-off. Indeed it was Star Wars night as the Bears took on the Senators in Binghamton.

Things started off strong for the Bears. Graham Mink earned the first goal of the game only 29 seconds into the game. Later in the period, the Senators tied it up with a shot from the face-off circle that eluded Dany Sabourin.

The Bears responded quickly, however. Matt Ford was right in front of the net to shoot a rebound past a sprawling Robin Lehner. That lead lasted until the Senators got a late power play. Binghamton not only scored on that power play, but also scored two more times in the remaining minute of the period. It had quickly gone from a Bears lead to all Binghamton momentum.
