Reps7 Strathroy 5
Relief.
That's how I feel. I'm not sure that's how the Coach feels. To give up four goals as gifts. Puck control in our end has to improve. But on a lighter note the Reps dug themselves out of a hole and beat a defensive team with seven goals.
Three AE players were AP'ed and they didn't let us down After poor puck control in our end resulted in us giving up a soft goal the boys settled down and started taking the puck to Strathroy Evan worked the puck out to Brandon who let a low shot go Jack Hacket picked up the rebound and buried it. Then Zach and Isaac and Connor went to work. Man with great passes and Zach flying they quickly put us ahead with great shots. Isaac buried one past their goalie and later Zach tipped in a beauty. Then the dam let go and Strathroy with some good forechecking and poor play in our end resulted in them going up ahead of us in the score.
One of our other players brought up as an extra got a beauty out front as Jaret Scarrow spun and rang one in off the post to tie the game. Then Trent did the Bobby Orr going coast to coast and getting past their "D" slipped one past the goalie who faced more then forty shots.
After that Strathroy seemed to run out of steam, and T.J fed a long bomb to Fergie who made no mistake and put the game out of reach. Goaltending duties were shared tonight so both goalies were in on the win. Like I say a relief after a nailbiter. I was close to taking my socks off as I was running out of fingernails to chew.
