Game Recap: Rangers Complete Eastern Road Trip With 5-3 Loss To Petes
Peterborough, ON – It was a great start to the game for the Rangers scoring three unanswered to open the game and led 3-1 after 20 minutes of play. However, it was Peterborough that stormed back with five unanswered goals of their own – one with the goalie pulled, to knock of the East Avenue Blue by a score of 5-3.
