It was not the way the Belleville Senators wanted to start a five-game road trip.
Despite scoring the first goal of the game while outshooting Syracuse 40-24 the B-Sens were crushed 7-1 by the Crunch.
Belleville captain Garrett Pilon summed up their night.
Angus Crookshank scored the B-Sens’ lone goal, his ninth.
Belleville moves on to Bridgeport Connecticut to face the Islanders Saturday and Sunday.
