Things got tense between Cam MacIntyre(41) and Michel Haley(18) as the Sharks took a two-goal lead on the Sound Tigers in the 2nd period of IceCats’ night at the DCU. No matter though, as Bridgeport were spoilers scoring the next three for the 6-3 win.
Sharks‘ 2011 AHL All-Star defenseman Justin Braun(27) gives me the thumbs up on the coolness of the IceCats‘ jerseys the team wore on 1/22.

As part of the 75th Anniversary of the AHL, on January 22, the Worcester Sharks hosted IceCats‘ night to pay tribute to the former team that played in the city from 1994-2005 before St. Louis Blues moved them to Peoria (Rivermen).
Both present and former team mascots took part in the special night.
Islanders‘/Sound Tigers‘ defenseman Dylan Reese is used to the trips back and forth between Connecticut and Long Island. He’s been called-up 4 times for 19 games this season but has done less well than he did in 19 games in the NHL last season. Having recently been reassigned to the AHL, you have to wonder if he will get another shot with the big club.
Brandon Mashinter(53) is seeing his first playing time in the NHL with San Jose in his second season in the system. He’s played 10 games with the big team but has yet to register a point. Some might say that’s not exactly what he there for either. I say to stick you need to contribute on the score sheet too.

Sharks‘ first year thumper Cam MacIntyre(41) throws punches with ex-Sharks, now Pirates forward Dennis McCauley(28), who is having himself a career year in Portland.
Sharks‘ big and tough guy Frazer McLaren(10) 6’5″ 250 lbs. is sporting a shiner he picked up from getting poked in the eye during a fight with P-Bruins‘ Brian McGratton(11) at the Dunk on 1/16.
