Shootout
SYR- Volkov, Somppi
LAV- Audette
Andy Andreoff and Carter Verhaeghe were the game's first and second stars.
When Syracuse recently lost Mitchell Stephens from the lineup again due to injury, one might've been concerned with the Crunch once again losing the services of one of their best centermen. Except, oh, they just pulled Otto Somppi out of the can. Somppi's first two games with Syracuse, 1-1-2 and a Shootout winner tonight. Tampa Bay's organization continues to be an embarrassment of riches from a depth standpoint.
