The Sarnia
Jr. Sting Minor Atom MD started their play downs on
Wednesday February 16 when they traveled to London
to
face the West London Hawks.
Sarnia had a 4-0 lead late in the second period
before the Hawks mounted a comeback with 3
unanswered goals. Cameron Stevens played the entire
game between the pipes for the Jr. Sting and held on
for the 4-3 victory.
Zac Moore started the scoring for the Jr. Sting in
the first frame when he buried a rebound from a Kaz
Gudelis point
shot. With four minutes remaining in the second
period Kaz would score on another point shot that
surprised the
screened Hawks netminder. Hayden Griffin picked up
an assist on the play.
One minute later Kaz would once again play a part in
the Jr. Stings scoring by creating a turn-over in
the Hawks zone and
dishing the puck to Collin Zimmer who snuck it in
under the London goalie. With a minute twenty left
in the second Ryan Eyre would dig the puck out of
the corner and thread a beautiful pass to Zimmer in
front of the Hawks net for Collins second of the
game.
West London did not give up and would score their
first goal with 31 seconds left in the second
period, another at the 7 minute mark of the third
period and add another with one minute left in the
game. With the London goalie on the bench for the
extra attacker Sarnia kept the puck out of their end
for the final 60 seconds to secure the win.
The Minor Atom MD team will play the London Bandits
on Friday February 18 at the Clearwater Arena at
7:00.
