Monsters to host Binghamton Devils this weekend
The Cleveland Monsters will continue their home stand as they play host to the visiting Binghamton Devils Friday and Sunday.
The seventh and eighth place teams in the AHL North Division square off at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse this Friday and Sunday. The Cleveland Monsters will look to bounce back after Wednesday’s disappointing loss at home to the Rochester Americans as they take on the Binghamton Devils.
Cleveland will look a bit different this weekend. Columbus recalled three players who appeared in Wednesday’s game. Matiss Kivlenieks, Andrew Peeke, and Kevin Stenlund will be with the Blue Jackets while the Monsters face the Devils.
Binghamton comes in 6-4-0-0 in their last 10 games while Cleveland is 4-5-1-0. Both teams have switched places multiple times in regards to their place in the standings. Neither team has been able to pull away from the other and both have 46 points on the season.
Brett Seney leads the Devils in points this season with 37 (15 goals, 22 assists) in 45 games this season. Seney is tied for the team lead in goals with Joey Anderson and assists with Nick Merkley.
Rookie Gilles Senn is their main goaltender and has a goals allowed average of 2.89 in 20 games. Senn has a save percentage of .895 and has allowed 57 goals on the year. Cory Schneider is Binghamton’s other goaltender with a goals allowed average of 2.99, just slightly higher than Senn. Schnieder’s save percentage is marginally better than Senn’s (.897).
