The Hershey Bears defeated the Belleville Senators 4-1 on Friday night.
Angus Crookshank scored for the Senators.
The Bears grabbed the only goal of the first period, and the first of the second. The Senators came back to take their one and only goal late in the second, before the Bears took another to keep their lead. In the third, the Bears grabbed one more goal to take the game.
Belleville Senators head coach Dave Bell said the team needed to adapt better to longer ice times.
“We’ve got twelve guys out, but they are American Hockey League rostered players and they’re playing in the American Hockey League,” said Bell. “We as a group have got to figure out how to play within a structure, how to play within each other’s limitations and figure out how to get wins, because you just can’t keep waiting for guys to come back or looking for excuses.”
The Senators are back in action on Friday hosting the Bears at CAA Arena.
