RECAPS — HINTONBURG

Scared Hitless vs Godfathers

Our first game of the night was an old rivalry dating back some years as SH took on GF.  It took 5 minutes to get the games first and it was GF taking the early lead.  They followed that up with another but before the period was over SH tallied one making it 2-1 at the break.   GF restored the two goal lead in the second period but with 7 minutes left SH made it a one goal game again.   GF weather a late push by SH and find the back of the net one more time as that sealed the win with SH unable to get another.  GF took this one by a score of 4-2.  Top Scorer: Andrew Aboumossa (4G)

GF – Nick Lamb – 2GA/27 shots

SH – Yves Belanger – 4GA/33 shots

Jagloons vs Noel Properties

We had a fun matchup in the second game as JAG took on NP with both teams finding the scoresheet plenty of times.  JAG opened the scoring beating the goalie a minute and a half in.   NP responded with 3 straight goals to take the lead and each team finished the period off with another 2 each after that making it 5-3 for NP going into the second period.  JAG regrouped and scored back to back goals early in the second as we were now tied.  With 10 minutes left in the game NP went on a scoring spree with 3 unanswered goals over 7 minutes of play to put the game out of reach and take this one by a score of 8-4.  Top Scorer: Jaxon McVie-Stevenson (5G)

NP – Mitch Tennian – 5GA/34 shots

JAG – Russell Latham -  8GA/33 shots

Ottawa Aces vs Torpedo Owls  

We had a high scoring game in this one as OA and TO combined for a total of 20 goals on the scoresheet.  OA opened it up with 4 straight goals in the first 10 minutes.  TO responded with a pair but followed that up another 2 goals against. Before the period was over TO got 2 more goals to make it 6-4 for OA heading into break.  The teams traded goals back and forth for most of the period until there was 4 minutes left with TO down by 3.  They scored 2 goals in a couple minutes to bring it to within one looking like they might tie it.  OA had other plans as they scored with just over 1 minute left to preserve the win 11-9.  Top scorer: Cole Dashnay (3G/1A)

OA –  Michael Mirdamadi – 9GA/24 shots

TO – Jake Hardwick – 11GA/29 shots

Great Balls of Fire vs Blue Eagles

It was another fun game as GBF brought an army to take on BE with both teams looking for 2 points.  GBF stormed out the gate with 3 straight goals while only giving up 1 in the period as they were up 3-1 at the half.  GBF started the second like they did the first with another 3 unanswered.  BE scored a pair to put them back within reach but GBF once again scored in bunches with another 3 more to put the game well out of reach.   BE got a feel good goal late at the buzzer but it was long over as GBF took home the win 9-4.  Top Scorer: Cameron Fioret (2G/1A)

GBF – Felix Boucher – 4GA/18 shots

BE – Dalton Brown – 9GA/28 shots

Firewagon vs Morning Wood

Our game of the night was between FWG and MW as both teams looked intense wanting the win for this week.  MW started it off scoring but FWG had answer with a goal right back keeping it tied.  Each team scored one more before the period was over making it a 2-2 game going into the second.  FW scored back to back goals including one on the PP for the largest lead of the game thus far.  MW would scored two goals in 40 seconds to make it tied once more with 9 minutes left to play.  FWG took the lead back less than a minute after giving up the tie and it stayed that way until late in the period.  MW got a PP for the final 2 minutes and they capitalized with the equalizer sending this game to a shootout.  2^nd shooter would score for FWG while their goalie kept it out as they avoided the late game collapse with the 6-5 win.  Top Scorer: Scott Mcrae (2G/2A)

FWG – Mike Adams – 5GA/28 shots

MW – Marty Leury  –  5GA/31 shots

Good Canadian Kids vs Wobbly Pops

Our second last game of the night saw GCK and WOP square up with the game playing mostly to one side.  GCK brought it early scoring 4 minutes into it and then followed that with another 3 straight goals as they were up big in 10 minutes.  WOP got one of the goals back but gave up 2 more as they trailed 6-1 heading into the second period.  WOP showed a stronger second half but the first period proved too much of cost.  The teams traded goals back and forth throughout the period as WOP were never able to close the 4 goal gap.  GCK scored two more for good measure in the dying minutes as this was never in doubt with GCK winning 10-4.  Top Scorer: Mike Gallivan (4G/1A)

GCK – Mitch Tennian – 4GA/24 shots

WOP – Mike Adams – 10GA/27 shots

Cyclones vs Cross Bearers

Our final game of the night saw CB taking on CYC in a game with two fairly well matched teams.  The first period was one sided as CB came to play while CYC looked like they weren’t ready for the 9pm start.  CB scored 4 goals in the period while allowing none against as they took a 4-0 lead into the second half while also dominating the shot department 19-6.  CYC woke up at half and came out with a much stronger second period scoring 5 minutes into it.  They added another shortly after to cut the deficit to two but CB scored their 5^th with four minutes to go restoring the 3 goal cushion.   CYC got one more late to make it interesting but it was too little too late as CB won this game by a score of 5-3.  Top Scorer; Jacob Cover (2G) 

CB – Gianmarco Pagani – 3GA/18 shots

CYC – Dylan Johnston – 5GA/32 shots
