(2)Raging Rhinos vs Smooth Sailors(5) Game 2
Despite a better start to the match, the Raging Rhinos weren’t able to hold on. This time the Smooth Sailors mounted the comeback riffling five straight markers that included goals in every frame. M.Testolina snapped the 2-2 with his first of two in the game and J.Palmitano may have netted the back breaker when capitalising late in the second period for a 4-2 lead. When combining the experience and past success of the Raging Rhinos along with the season the Smooth Sailors had, it was only normal that this final lived up to expectations. Hockeyballe.com would like to congratulate the captain Renzo Fasano and the rest of the Smooth Sailors for capturing the D Monday night division championship.
The Boston Pizza player of the night goes to Matthew Testolina. The talented forward has been consistent all season long for the Raging Rhinos and when it counted the most, he was able to come up big posting up a total of three goals.
