Hungry Labrie provides jolt of energy in return to the Syracuse Crunch


You've got to feed the big dog to keep him happy.

As usual, Syracuse Crunch forward P.C. Labrie was smiling on Friday night.

He patted roommate Eric Neilson on the back, complimenting his cooking. Labrie apparently misses that up in Tampa Bay.

"This guy can cook,'' Labrie said. "He does like 40 appetizers before we have a dinner. By the time we have dinner, we're full.''

Labrie will have to shovel it in while he can. Since he's here on a conditioning assignment from Tampa Bay, he can only stay up to two weeks before he'd have to clear NHL waivers.

Friday's 7-1 win over Binghamton was Labrie's first game back, and it was typical of the popular grinder. He scored an ugly goal off a centering pass that deflected in off Sens defenseman Danny New, and he fought to defend a teammate.

"It feels good to be back with the boys,'' Labrie said. "It's my family. I've been with them for three years. They all know I'm happy to be here.''

Labrie, who has played in just three games with the Lightning, said his main objective is to regain his feel for the puck, but there's certainly nothing rusty about his protective instincts. He fought Binghamton's Mark Borowiecki on Friday after Labrie didn't like a hit Borowiecki put on Syracuse's Philip-Michael Devos.

"It's just a reaction,'' Labrie said. "He was hitting a lot tonight. At some point I don't have to worry about the score and protect my teammates.''
