P-Bruins shutout by Monarchs

Manchester Monarchs goaltender Jason LaBarbera stopped 41 shots and blanked the Providence Bruins, 1-0, last night at the Verizon Wireless Arena in Manchester, NH.

LaBarbera outdueled P-Bruin net minder Phil Sauve, who also had a strong game, making 27 saves.

“It’s a little frustrating,” said center Ben Walter, one of eight P-Bruins who leveled three or more shots at LaBarbera, “when you get that many opportunities. Especially on the power play where we had a ton of chances. He (LaBarbera) came up big for them. He was definitely the difference.”

La Barbera, the AHL's most valuable player three seasons ago, has a league-best seven shutouts this season.
