Renegades lose debut to Thrashers 5-3

ATL----The NHL's newest team, the Cleveland Renegades, lost their season opener in Atlanta, 5-3.

Pavel Datsyuk, a free agent pickup, became the first player to score a goal in Cleveland's young history when he hit a slapshot from the blue line to give the Renegades an early lead in the first period.

Unfortunately, that lead wouldn't hold up as Atlanta quickly scored twice before the period ended to go up 2-1.

In the second, it was all Atlanta as they score twice, once on a power play, to go up 4-1.

The Renegades weren't done, as newest free agents Mike Modano and Jerome Ingla both scored late in the second to bring the Renegades to within 1.

Unfortunately, in the third, Atlanta scored the final goal to win it.

Next up for Cleveland, is a game in Carolina, followed by their much-anticipated home opener against New Jersey at the Q.
