Preds calm Storm
With a complete team effort the Boys win their 3rd in a row!
We can't go any further without saying what a game for Elijah, he played shutout hockey for 28 minutes. The team got caught flat footed at the blue line and gave up a 2 on 0. You almost had it but it squeaked over the line.
With Elijah holding our end down, the team marched through the Storm and scored 5 goals in the second period. By the third period the boys were playing as a team and it showed, with Sasha collecting 2 goals and 2 assists, Josh scored 2 goals, Traytan scoried twice, and for there first time this year both Damion and Kiniw each had 2 goals (with Kiniw collecting an assist as well). Devon and Finn each had an assist and Ryan collected 2 assists.
Our Captains first star went to Kiniw for his rushes and good play with the puck. For a boy who wasn't sure if he was going to play he sure stood out for the whole game. Way to go Kiniw!!
Coach Derrick chose Devon for his great play at both ends of the ice and for his determination. This boy was checked hard (with no call) came to the bench and in his words "I'll take a break" but got right back out there and mixed it up in the corner, AWESOME!!!!
Coach Andrew had the final pick and gave it to Frank. For anyone who was there it was awe inspiring to say the least. Frank had two dippsie doodles through the neutral zone and would have had two breakaways if two unmentionable teammates hadn't gone off side (inside joke).
Frank played well, heads up D at both ends of the ice and came off with a smile as always. Keep inspiring your teammates with your attitude.
I'm sad to say our girls and Tristan had a game at the same time with their other teams.
See you all at PRACTICE on Thursday in Lions Head
Thank you for reading my rant.
