offensive push to take the lead. As the period
progressed the Hawks seemed to be gaining some momentum
and late in the period, the Point hit the score board
when Kaeden Canie scored with an assist going to Bradley

picked up as the Hawks goal seemed to spark both teams.

neither team could take advantage of the extra man as
the game remained at 1-0. As the period grew to a close
both teams began to tire and the Irish were able to tie
the game at 1-1 with six minutes to play. The Blackhawks
continue to work hard and it paid off when Nathan
Edlington put it in the top shelf to give the Point the
2-1 win.
