The 2017-18 AHL regular season is down to its final games of the year so there’s bound to be some meaningless games remaining on the schedule.

One of those games happens to be the one between the Syracuse Crunch and the Binghamton Devils that took place in Syracuse on Wednesday night and one specific play from the games shows which team is playoff bound and which team is sitting near the bottom of the standings.



With 10 seconds remaining on the game clock in the opening frame, the Crunch quickly regrouped and stormed up the ice on a mission and they got it done with less than a second to go in the period thanks to a team effort.
