The Belleville Senators will do something this weekend they haven’t done all season – play three games in three days. Actually three games in less than 48 hours. On the bright side, they’re all at home.
The B-Sens host the Laval Rocket tonight (Fri) and tomorrow before wrapping up the weekend with a Sunday matinee against Hartford.
With 13 games left in the regular season, Belleville is fourth in a tight AHL North Division.
They are three points out of third but three points ahead of sixth place Laval which would mean missing the playoffs.
Game time is 7:05 Friday and Saturday at the CAA Arena.
The B-Sens wrap up the weekend Sunday afternoon at 2 o’clock with the visiting Hartford Wolfpack (New York Rangers).

It was Lambert’s second of the game.

If a seventh game is necessary it will be played in Frankford Sunday at 6:50 p.m.
