For the Americans (18-11-0-0, 36 points, .621 PPCT), they are playing well this year. They are also hovering around .500 in their last 10 games. A win would be great, but they would like to use a win to start a winning streak.

Comets have a goal differential of +31. They convert 21.33% of their power plays into goals. And they kill 85.71% of their penalties.

Final Thoughts:
Crazy Game. Amerks had a 5-goal lead. But the Comets came flying back scoring 4 unanswered goals to finish the game. But it wasn't enough as Rochester gets their 19th win of the 2021-22 Regular Season.

Comets will head back to Utica, to face Syracuse Crunch on Friday. While Rochester will host Belleville Senators.
