Mighty Ducks 7, Saint John 4
SAINT JOHN, N.B. — The Cincinnati Mighty Ducks beat the Saint John Flames 7-4 Friday night in the AHL at Harbour Station.
Bob Wren and Maxim Kuznetsov scored two goals each for the Ducks, who improved to 5-4-4-1 on the season and continued a hot streak that has seen them lose only once in eight games (4-1-3-0).
“We're learning what price we have to pay consistently to win,” Ducks coach Moe Mantha said. “We're beginning to do the things we need to do to be successful like using our speed, driving to the net and creating second chances.”
