Lousy Special Teams Leads Amerks to 3-1 Loss
The Amerks played another what looked like uninspired game on Wednesday night in their 3-1 loss to the Adirondack Phantoms. Something needs to change. Obviously Benoit Groulxs talk on the ice at practice on Tuesday had no effect on the team. The penalty kill was horrible. The power play was horrible. The passing was weak. …
