GLENS FALLS, NY - March 14, 2025 - Four different goal scorers and another strong performance by Brad Arvanitis earned the Maine Mariners a 4-2 victory over the Adirondack Thunder on Friday night at Cool Insuring Arena. The Mariners won for the fourth time in the last five games and sixth in their last nine.
The lone goal of the opening period was scored by the Mariners on the power play at 7:13. Following a roughing penalty to Adirondack's Ryan Francis, Wyllum Deveaux deflected a point shot from Justin Bean past Jeremy Brodeur for his 14th goal of the season and a 1-0 Maine lead.
The Mariners tacked on two more goals in the middle frame to build their lead to 3-0. Within the first minute, Xander Lamppa found a loose puck in the left circle and elevated over Jeremy Brodeur, scoring for his second game in a row and doubling the Maine advantage to 2-0. Midway through the period, Ayden MacDonald and Matthew Philip worked a 2-on-1 to connect on Maine's third goal of the night and a comfortable 3-0 lead after 40 minutes.
At 5:05 of the third, Jacob Hudson's short side wrister beat Brodeur's glove to make it a 4-0 game. From there, Adirondack got goals from Kevin O'Neil and Gustav Mueller, but couldn't get closer than two. Arvanitis turned aside 27 of 29 to win his fourth consecutive start.
