The Utica Comets came up short in their home opener at the Adirondack Bank Center on Wednesday night, falling in a shootout to the Rochester Americans by a 4-3 final.
For the second time since the Comets returned to Utica in 2013, Utica and the newly dubbed Adirondack Bank Center at the Utica Memorial Auditorium will be the center of the AHL hockey world for the AHL All-Star Classic.
