The Newfoundland Growlers snapped a six-game winless streak in style as they topped the Maine Mariners 5-0 last night at Mary Brown’s Centre.
Keith Petruzzelli picked up his third shutout of the season with 25 saves in the 5-0 victory.
They scored early in the first , eventually heading into the dressing room with a 2-0 lead.
Five different players had the scoring touch for the hometown Growlers, playing their first game in St. John’s before fans since attendance restrictions were lifted.
Game two of the four-game series goes tomorrow night.
