TROIS-RIVIERES – Tyler Brennan made 28 saves as the Adirondack Thunder defeated the Trois-Rivieres Lions, 4-1, on Wednesday night in front of 2,143 fans at Colisée Vidéotron.

Tyson Fawcett opened the scoring 7:52 into the game for Adirondack. Tanner Edwards’ shot from the hash marks got through goaltender Hunter Jones, and Fawcett dove to poke it over the line for the 1-0 lead. The goal was Fawcett’s fifth of the year with assists from Edwards and Brian Carrabes, and the Thunder took the one-goal lead into the first intermission.

Adirondack took a 2-0 lead in the second period as Brian Carrabes fired in his seventh of the year after a faceoff win by Sean Olson. The goal was at 6:30 of the middle period right off the draw and Olson collected the lone assist.

Just 30 seconds later, Trois-Rivieres answered back at Cedric Desruisseaux tapped in a loose puck after the original save by Tyler Brennan. The goal was Desruisseaux’s sixth of the year with assists from Mark Estapa and Jacon Dion 7:00 into the second.

Just over five minutes later, the Thunder regained a two-goal lead as Alex Campbell went around the defense and cut to the front of the net, sliding the puck under Hunter Jones. The goal was Campbell’s fourth of the year with Luke Reid and Grant Loven collecting assists with 7:38 remaining. Adirondack took a 3-1 lead into the third period.

Justin Taylor added to the lead in the third period as he put home a rebound chance in front of Hunter Jones after a Brannon McManus shot on the power play. The goal was Taylor’s 13th of the year with assists from McManus and Tag Bertuzzi with 3:39 left in regulation for a 4-1 advantage.

That held up as the final score as Tyler Brennan stopped 28 of 29 shots for his second win in a row.
