HEAVYWEIGHT Tilt + Tensions Rise After Empty Net Goal 10/3/2026

6 PIMs, Tinordi vs. Thorpe Heavyweight Tilt & 10-Man Scrum Meltdown! (Syracuse vs. Laval) Things boiled over at Place Bell on October 3, 2026, as the Syracuse Crunch and Laval Rocket racked up a massive 86 penalty minutes in a hostile North Division rivalry showdown. The highlight of the afternoon was an absolute war between veteran heavyweight Jarred Tinordi (Syracuse) and Laval rookie Tyler Thorpe—trading heavy right hands and vicious uppercuts in a classic toe-to-toe AHL tilt. Just when the game looked out of reach, all hell broke loose with 3:19 remaining in the 3rd period. Alex Belzile put home an empty-netter to make it 5-1 Laval, triggering a full 10-skater scrum. Multiple altercations, misconducts, and roughing minors were dished out (including David Reinbacher throwing hands) as the referees handed out 60 PIMs in a single stoppage to bring the game total to 86!
