Once again it was an early morning start for the Flames on a weekend smack dab in the middle of a holiday week. The 2010 Flames and their hockey family headed for Canton, MA while it was still dark this morning. Only to find that they arrived before anyone had opened up the rink.
Once the rink was opened the Flames (missing 3 players) didn’t skate with any particular enthusiasm and fell to a very well structured Jr. Terriers team, 4-1. After the ride home and an hour to restart, the Flames were at West Side Arena to face Rochester. The game was scoreless after one period with both goaltenders playing well. Then Rochester hit for 3 goals in the second and led 3-1 after two periods. Manchester rallied in the third period to tie the game at 3-3, and the game would end in a tie.
