Third period push falls short for Panthers

(5)Assadi Consulting inc vs Panthers(4)

A gritty push wasn’t enough for the Panthers as they just fell short to the Assadi Consulting inc. The Panthers had a hole to dig out of down 4-2, but got some serious momentum when R.Beaver launched a rocket-from almost mid court to beat P.Assadi. That goal led to an eventual equaliser by M.Blackman, and all of a sudden this game was up fro grabs. However, that didn’t stop the Assadi Consulting inc to respond after their let down. M.Croteau came up big with just over four minutes left to regain the lead for his club. As expected, the Panthers would push as they have all game long but weren’t able to find the back of the net. Points are extremely crucial at this stage of the season for the Assadi Consulting inc, who are glad they picked up three against a team they are in contention with.

Rolling 3 lines works wonders for Fatal Demons

(3)RCGT Knights vs Fatal Demons(6)

The system of rolling three lines enables the Fatal Demons to be consistent and very effective. This helps get them more involved with high energy rather than leaning on a couple of key players. It clearly showed as the game went on. The Fatal Demons were winning the loose balls which enabled them to control the match. And with that kind of sustained pressure, the goals would eventually go in. D.Ugaldez was definitely on his game as the sniper produced three straight for his club. The RCGT Knights simply couldn’t keep up and compete hard enough to mount any sort of comeback. The contest would eventually end 6-3 as both sides prepared to face one another again in a double header night.

Uncharacteristic Armadillos give up 3 straight in third period loss to Altius

(6)Altius vs Armadillos(4)

The Altius stunned the Armadillos with three third period unanswered goals en route to a 6-4 victory. The Armadillos may have felt they got away-from their structure and allowed the Altius to burn them on plays coming-from the neutral zone. The third period charge came by committee with three different players scoring. A.Tedone notched his second for the equaliser right before P.Arkalis put his team in front for good. M.Arkalis would cap it off with some insurance for his second goal and third point of the night. The match was a chess battle with both sides never leading after two periods. The Armadillos were the ones to strike first in the final frame, but endured their worse moments shortly after N.Kokovides put them in front.

RCGT Knights stuck settling for draw after deserving performance

(5)RCGT Knights vs Fatal Demons(5) S.O

The RCGT Knights felt they deserved a better result for how well they performed in their second game with the Fatal Demons. This contest went into overtime because D.Ugaldez beat the clock by only five seconds to tie the game. The first period was where most of the action occurred with the RCGT Knights surging on four goals in only eight minutes. F.Bchara potted a pair, and R.Kilgour contributed with three helpers. The Fatal Demons did score twice during that frame and knew they had a lot of work ahead of them if they planned on coming back. Still, they believed as they slowly started to mount some pressure and shots towards S.Sauk, who was a big difference maker throughout the entire game. Eventually, the comeback was complete thanks to Ugaldez’s late tally. With both sides unable to convert in overtime, a shootout was left over to decide matters. After sending three shooters, both sides traded one goal apiece leaving no winner.

The SalumiVino player of the night goes to Danny Ugaldez of the Fatal Demons. In a double header night, D.Ugaldez was vital in both games that saw him collect a hat trick in the first encounter followed with a very late equaliser in the second contest.
