Point Edward Atom's head into Christmas break with a win
sarniasports.com December 23rd, 2010


The Point Edward Atom Blackhawks hosted the Strathroy(Blue) Rockets in Lambton -Middlesex league action and came out with a 5-1 victory heading into the Christmas break.

The Point came out hard against their old rival, putting the Rockets on their heels and forcing them to play defensively. The Blackhawks hit the board first when Gladwish stick-handled the puck around the Rockets net and used the defense as a screen to make it 1-0. Shortly thereafter, Best drove the puck into the Rockets corner and passed to an open Kennedy who made it 2-0. The remaining of the period saw the majority of action in the Strathroy end and the Point goalie seeing little action in net.

The second period continued as the first with play mainly in the Rockets end. The Point was able to extend their lead when Kennedy returned the favour and set up Best who put in a backhander from the front of the net. The Hawks had a missed opportunity when Hocking passed to an open Justin Waun but he couldn't connect the one-timer and the second ended 3-0.

Strathroy couldn't seem to get into a rhythm and the Point made sure they couldn't with very aggressive fore-checking. The pairing of Kennedy and Best connected once again when Kennedy won the draw to Best who drove to the Strathroy end and top shelved it to make it 4-0. Strathroy quickly retaliated but it was too little too late as they got into penalty trouble and Best and Kennedy hooked up one final time to end the game 5-1 for the Point.
