The Lehigh Valley Phantoms' (11-4-1) winning streak came to an end at eight straight games, but they're looking to start up another one and their second straight win against the Binghamton Senators (5-9-1) tonight at the PPL Center.
Before the holiday, the Phantoms were able to secure a 1-0 shutout win up in Binghamton behind Alex Lyon's first career professional shutout (28 saves). The two teams finish the home and home series at 7:05 p.m. ET.
After the jump, a full preview of everything you need to know in advance of tonight's game.
