Tonight, we obviously had to watch the Canadiens’ game, who finally lost in overtime.
But we also had to take a look at the Rocket’s game from time to time. Why? Because Jacob Fowler was making his professional debut. He made a good first impression by stopping 25 of the 26 shots directed at him.
He allowed a goal in the Rocket’s win. Welcome to pro hockey, Jacob!

During this second engagement, the Crunch dominated, but after the goal, Fowler didn’t feel sorry for himself and allowed his team to return to the locker room with the lead.
The Crunch showed their teeth in the second period, forcing Jacob Fowler to stand out a few times. He only allowed one goal on a direct shot so far. 2-1 Laval after 40 minutes in Syracuse.

– To follow.
Friedman on 32TP says it has never happened before where the NHL team has a 30 goal scorer on defence and the AHL affiliate does as well, Jacob MacDonald has 29 goals in 60 games with the Colorado Eagles.

The Lions will face the Reading Royals in the first round of the ECHL playoffs.
They split their season series with four wins each. https://t.co/VPNwZQmzXA— Andrew Zadarnowski (@AZadarski) April 13, 2025
