Game Experience: Jan 27, 2012 - Admirals vs Bears - Admirals win 2-1

This night the Admirals would host arch rival the Hershey Bears.  This night would also bring a legendary Admirals player named Ollie Kolzig to sign autographs and to give out bobbleheads.  To date this season, the Admirals would play in front of the highest attended game with over 7000 fans in attendance at Scope.  Both teams came ready to play for this matchup.  After the first twenty minutes, the game was still scoreless.  Halfway through the second, the Admirals were able to get a goal from Carter Ashton.  After forty minutes of play, the Admirals had a 1-0 lead.  The Bears were able to score fairly early into the third tying the game up, but midway through the third the Admirals got a very clutch goal from Pierre-Cedric Labrie which ended up being the game winner. 
The experience at this game was very exciting.  This game had the feel of a playoff game.  Hershey brought a lot of fans into the arena, and both sides were able to dish out some taunts at one another.  It is always a blessing to see two really good teams fight it out for the two points.
