andrew brethauer October 3rd, 2011


Blenheim, ON - The Alvinston Flyers continue their win streak, pushing it to four games after a 5-4 victory over the Blenheim Blades Sunday night.

Blenheim had the initial lead, going up by two on the Flyers. Taylor Phillips scored in the opening five minutes, while Neven Wiebenga scored nine minutes later for the 2-0 Blades lead.

But with a minute left in the period, the Flyers would tie it up. Brett Dalton would score on the powerplay to cut the lead in half, and with five seconds remaining in the period, Chris Edwards would get his first of the game to tie it after the first period at 2-2.

In the second, the Flyers continued to ride the momentum, as Cody Curts scored 1:31 into the second, Alvinston's third goal in just under two and a half minutes of player.

Blenheim would get the tying goal on the powerplay, but the Flyers would come out with two more goals in the second, as Kirk Dorman put the Flyers ahead by one, while Edwards scored his second of the night on the powerplay to make it a 5-3 game after the second.

Blenheim would get one back in the third from Taylor Phillips, but James Morreau would stop the remaining seven shots in the period to pick up the victory.

Alvinston had split goalie duties on the night, as Sebastein Malette stooped 10 on 13 shots before being replaced by Morreau who got the victory with 12 saves on 13 shots.

Alvinston is tied with Mooretown for the lead of the North Divisions, and the two teams will meet up on Thursday in a special home game for the Flags at the Sarnia Arena. Both teams are currently running four game winning streaks.
