Scouting the Bears: Hershey is 8-1-1-1 in its last 11, including a seven-game point streak (6-0-0-1). The Bears are coming off a fairly convincing win over the Penguins on Friday. Kip Brennan, Scott Barney and Quintin Laing all had goals in that game and Frederic Cassivi made 32 saves for the shutout.
Keep an eye on:
For the Penguins – G Nolan Schaefer played a good game in defeat, despite taking a shot to the mask that left him with a bloody nose and forced him to the bench for just under five minutes midway through the first period. For the Bears – LW Quintin Laing was probably the Bears best skater on Friday. He made the play that led to the winning goal and scored into an empty net to seal the win.
