SHARKS   4    BRUINS   4

HABS   5     HAWKS   0

The Frenchmen sweep for the day, as the Hawks descend in the other direction today!  Mike Lawson scores twice for the Habs.  Singles for Don Courtley and subs Chuck Moraine and Rick Batchelder, who contributed in all the Habs scoring with also a four assist game!  Only allowing one goal in both games today – Sir Kevin Beebe with the shutout!  No Hawks highlights as they extend their losing streak to five games.

WINGS   3    FLYERS   3

Grand Rapids call up Dougie Roehl, scores his second goal of the game with just under two minutes left in the contest for the tie!  Bobby Watson with the middle marker.  Keith Foucher(Top Shelf), John Zuccarini and Costa Rica sub Sala with the Flyers goals.
