Barracuda vs Reign 160210

And after losing two in SoCal last week, the Barracuda hope to turn the tables as they host the Reign in NorCal.  The Reign have a 8-0-1-0 record on the line in San Jose.

The Barracuda arrived home early Sunday.  Got on the ice for practice on Monday and Tuesday.

The Barracuda are hoping to (finally) get that 637th win for Coach Sommer, at home, against the best team in the league.  Torres expected to make his Barracuda home debut.

Dell in nets.  Made 50 saves (52 SOG) — most saves in AHL this season.  Goals from Lerg, Young, Goodrow and Smith.  Barracuda were 2 for 3 on PP, and notched insurance goal short handed.

So, FINALLY, Coach Roy Sommer notches win 637, setting new AHL wins mark that had stood for 72 years.

Reign lost Gravel and Budaj to call ups; emergency 34 year-old goalie backed up.  Houser starting. And even congratulated Sommer on his record.
