The Phantoms are coming off back-to-back losses to the Wilkes Barre/Scranton Penguins over the weekend and will play the Hershey Bears this Wednesday, March 3rd, at 7 pm on AHL.tv. The Phantoms are 2-0 against the Bears this year. The last time they played the Bears was February 20th in a 5-4 overtime win.
