The St.
Christopher Cyclones may have lost a step with the
long Christmas break, as the Cyclones have no tied
their first two games back a fter
a month off. With minutes remaining, LCCVI tied the
game, and denied the Cyclones two points.
St.
Christopher's got it started early, as Spencer
Bronzi steals the puck on a give away inside the
Lancer's zone and deke's Brad Jacklin glove side to
put the Cyclones quickly up 1-0. It took nearly ten
minutes in back and forth action for the Lancer's to
reply, when Dallas Fraser find the puck in the slot
and snaps a wrist shot passed the Pat Brennan to tie
the game at 1-1.
In the
second, the Cyclones would use their speed, as Joe
DeSena would recieve a long pass from Ben Morrison
and be sent in all alone, once again dekeing Jacklin
and sliding the puck in to put the Cyclones up 2-1.
But this time it didn't take the Lancer's long to
reply, as forty-seven seconds after that, Troy
Whitely would put home a rebound to tie things up
once again. But this time, the Cyclones would
respond later in the period, as DeSena would score
his second of the game, as he is left all alone
after the Lancer defence pinched on a incoming
skater, and with a wide open shot, DeSena slapped it
passed Jacklin to put the Cyclones up by one at the
end of the second.
Both teams
picked up their hitting in the third, as each goalie
made critical saves to keep their team in the
 game.
But with the closing minutes of the game and the
Lancer's on a powerplay, Josh Moore would send a
wrister on net that would be Brennan glove side, and
tie the game at 3. Both teams would skate hard to
score, and LCCVI even rang the post in the final two
minutes, but neither team could skate to the victory
and the final ended it a 3-3 tie.
With the
tie, St. Chris still has not suffered a loss and
sits in first place with a 5-2-0 record. LCCVI
shares first place in points with 11 and a 5-2-1
record, but have played one more game then the
Cyclones. That game will go Tuesday afteroon, as St.
Christopher's takes on SCITS. |
