HOT GOALIE SEALS LOUISIANA WIN OVER ADMIRALS

Before a roaring Cajun Dome crowd of 11,700, the Louisiana IceGators rode goalie Marc Delorme to a 3-2 shootout victory over the Hampton Roads Admirals on Friday night.

Delorme turned away 28 Admirals shots in regulation before Hampton Roads scored twice in the final three minutes.

And he stopped the Admirals on three of five shots in the shootout as Ryan Mulhern and Denis Lamoureaux scored for Hampton Roads. The IceGators, meanwhile, got three shootout goals on four shots, including the game-winner from Mikhail Kravets.

Hampton Roads (1-2-1) took 16 shots in the final period, and most of them were quality scoring chances, especially in the final minutes, but were repeatedly stopped by Delorme. by CNB
