The Utica Comets stepped onto the ice at the Adirondack Bank Center on Saturday night to take on an Atlantic Division rival, the Springfield Thunderbirds. The game on Saturday marked the last time Utica plays a home game until April 19th. Utica did all they could to make sure their final home game of March left them two points heavier in the standings. With the game tied heading into the third period, the Comets used a late powerplay to score and take a lead and two points. Shane Bowers, forward for the Comets, factored in on each of the Comets four goals in a 5-4 win including the late goal in the final period to secure the game for Utica.
