It very well was a playoff preview, as the Mooretown Flags and Alvinston Flyers took to the ice Saturday night in Mooretown. With a big second period, the Flag's came away with a 5-2 victory, and move six points ahead of Alvinston in the North Division.

Alvinston had the early advantage in the first period, as they lead 2-0. Chris Edwards and Chase Clark each had a goal and an assist in the period two minutes apart to put the Flyers up on the second place Flag's. But Mooretown would respond and quickly. Adam Little made it 2-1 with his powerplay goal. Six seconds later, Kurtis Glowa made it 2-2. The Flag's were not finished in the second as Cody Hardman made it 3-2, and Donny Bowling capped off the period with his 7th of the season to put the Flags up 4-2.

Alvinston was held to just 9 shots in the final period and couldn't slip any passed Jordan Gladwish, who made 29 saves on 31 shots. Adam Little would score his second of the game on the powerplay late in the game to put the Flags up 5-2 and seal the victory.

With the win the Flags move six points ahead of the Flyers, and get a victory over their most likely playoff opponent. Alvinston, who is 2-3 in the month of January, is still nine points up on Dresden, and will most likely take on the Flag's in the first round.

The two teams will meet again, as the Flags have three games remaining, two against Wallaceburg and another playoff preview with Alvinston in between those games.
