***Carly’s Three Stars of the Game***
1*Brad Kobryn: Kobryn seems to be picking up right where he left off from his rookie season, amassing 16 points (10G-5A) in just 8 games. Picking up 5 points in this contest, Kobryn had plenty of quality shots, however, was covered heavily by the Rochester defense, as can be expected when you rack up 77 points in a single season then pick up 16 points in 8 games.
2**Ted Anstett: Anstett played remarkably well with new linemate Brad Kobryn and has the points to prove it. Anstett not only picked up a hat trick in this contest, but managed to grab two assists as well.
3***Tyler Duarte: Duarte comes in at a close second in points for the Bulldogs 13 points (5G-8A) in 8 games. Duarte picked up three of those points, including two goals, during this contest.
