The Elmira Jackals and the Trenton Devils meet in the rubber match of a three-game set at the Sun National Bank Center at 7:00 p.m. The Jackals took the middle game of the series at First Arena on Friday night, 5-2, after dropping the opener on Wednesday night, 5-4.

With an assist on R.J. Anderson's goal late in the first last night, Patrick Coulombe set a new career high with his 31st point of the season. Coulombe, a fifth-year pro from St. Fabien, Quebec, added an assist later in the evening and now leads ECHL defensemen with 32 points.
