Paul Byron (12) of the Portland Pirates is stopped cold by Manchester Monarchs’ goaltender Jonathan Bernier, in the second period of a Calder Cup playoff contest at Verizon Wireless Arena in Manchester, N.H., Monday. The Pirates are down three games to none to Manchester in the best of seven series, having put just three of 87 shots past Bernier. Portland will try to stave off elimination tonight in Manchester.
