AHL ECF GAME ONE: Binghamton @ Charlotte, Thursday, May 12,

Butler on the PP makes it 4-2.

Sens going on the PP again. 4 goals on 8 shots doesn't sound like playoff leading .944.

4-3 on the Checkers PP and they are getting another one.

BSens up 4-3 after 1.

Brust in to start the 2nd. Uh-oh.

LOL the team who gave up 4 goals and is losing leaves their goalie in, but the team who's winning and only gave up 3 pulls their goalie.

After a bunch of penalties (Sens were down 5-4, 5-3, 4-3, then 4-4 and finally a brief 5-4 powerplay) Wick scores to put the Sens up 5-3.

Pogge now in goal for Charlotte.

Checkers are gifted a lengthy 5-on-3 and they score to draw within 1, again. 5-4 BSens with 13:30 to go.

Condra and then Potulny score in a short span to put the BSens up 7-4 with under 10 to go. Dolpe then takes a penalty to put the BSens on the PP.

7 goals is the most scored by any team so far in the AHL playoffs.

7-4 B-Sens in the span of no time at all. Condra + Potulny. Serious Dung!

It's now 7 - 4 for Bingo about 10 Min left in the game.

BSens on another PP with a little over 5 minutes to go.

Game 1 - VICTORY!!

Seventh straight road win. They haven't lost on the road since game 1 of the opening round.

Was it Lehner that was shaky or did they just have to settle the ECF jitters and buckle down? On one of the goals Lehner had it between his pads and a guy standing in the crease rammed it in. Another one was shot between Cowen's legs. I wonder if KK pulled him to settle the team or if it was just Lehner.

I think Brust gets the win since the winning goal (5th) was scored when he was in. But who knows how they count it in hockey. They never went behind or tied after the first.

Brust got the W http://theahl.com/stats/official-game-report.php?game_id=1008617
