| Binghamton, NY-Denis
Hamel scored twice in his first game back in Binghamton
playing against his former team but the Adirondack
Phantoms dropped a 7-3 decision to the Binghamton
Senators Saturday night to conclude their two game
weekend road-trip.
Hamel is the all-time leading scorer in Binghamton
Senators history and has eight season of 20 or more
goals. In his first two games since signing a PTO
with the Phantoms he has scored three goals. A loud
ovation was given for the very popular Hamel when
he scored his first goal and then again when he
was announced over the in-house speaker system.
Hamel played six seasons for Binghamton since 2003
and had an AHL leading 54 goals with the Senators
in 2005-06.
Ben Holmstrom scored the other goal for the Phantoms
on a play in whcih everyone in the building thought
Jon Kalinski had fired it home. But as Kalinski
swung and the puck went in it turned out that the
puck had never made it to Kalinski's stick. Holmstrom
had intercepted the puck just as Kalinski was swinging
and he poked it home from his second goal of the
year.
Brian Stewart went the distance in the loss for
the Phantoms in his third start of the year. The
Phantoms outshot the Senators 40-36 on the night.
Ryan Keller led the way for the Sens with a pair
of goals. Corey Locke ad one goal and three assists
to earn #1 star of the game honors.
The Senators were clinging to a 2-1 lead late in
the 2nd period but a quick three goal burst in a
little over two minutes proved decisive for the
home team. Rookie Mike Hoffman finished that scoring
flurry for Binghamton with his first pro goal to
stretch the lead to 5-1.
It was the most goals allowed in a game this season
by Adirondack who will have a few days off coming
up before a three game homestand this weekend against
Toronto, Norfolk and Abbotsford.
