The last time the Brooklyn Aces were on the ice with the Danbury Mad Hatters on Dec. 18, it was obvious they were frustrated. Facing a gritty team that plays physical in both ends, the speedy and smaller Aces couldn’t beat Danbury goaltender Derek MacIntyre when it counted, ultimately falling 5-4.
Five days later and fresh off a 4-2 win against New Jersey however, the Aces had their way with MacIntyre all night long, scoring seven goals on 42 shots in an impressive 7-3 win.
“Danbury is a good club,” said Aces coach Chris Firriolo. “Every time we play them it’s a battle. This win gives us a bit of momentum when we go there on Friday.”
