I was able to attend the Admirals game two days after my birthday. This game was on a Tuesday night with a very light crowd. The opponent was arch rival Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins whom every Admirals fan enjoys to see when they come into town. This night did not fare well for the Admirals though. By the end of the first period, they were already in a 3-0 hole. For the remaining 40 minutes, the Admirals were able to score two goals, but could not overcome the three goal deficit. The Admirals had a late power play near the end of the third period to try and tie the game, but spent too much time passing the puck in the offensive zone and could not generate shots towards the net. Goal scorers for Norfolk were Radko Gudas and Michel Ouellet.
The game was very exciting and had some chippiness to it. The fans were able to see a couple of fights during the game. I was disappointed in the Admirals flat first period and lack of shots on the net. I also wish the attendance this night could have been a little bit better.
