Adam Erne is one of three Crunch regulars who has recently debuted in the NHL. Tanner Richard and Matthew Peca also played their first big-league games over the past few weeks.

Clark Donatelli, Benoit Groulx, Todd Nelson and Mike Stothers have clinched the honor of coaching at the 2017 AHL All-Star Classic.

You can sense it in Michael Bournival’s smile, flashed often between practice drills or in postgame interviews.

The American Hockey League has announced the following suspensions:

Syracuse goalie Adam Wilcox stands just 6-foot tall, a build that leaves him several inches short of many of the other netminders in the AHL and NHL. But for much of this season, his play and results have been looming very large.

Coming over from Montreal, newcomers Michael Bournival and Gabriel Dumont have sparked the Syracuse Crunch early this season.

“At any level, [when] you get to be a winner, you’re a winner your whole life. That’s the one thing I’m still chasing.”

This has been a long off-season for Syracuse Crunch fans, and new head coach Benoit Groulx appreciates their pain.
