LL3 Vs. Twin Centres 1 and 2



Wildcats vs. TC. 1 Stars
The Novice LL3 Wildcats would play Saturday morning (Feb. 28th) to St. Clements to avenge the earlier 3-2 playoff loss in February.  If TC#1 won the Wildcats would need to win the last two playoff games for a hope to play in a tiebreaker game.  The boys were pumped up as they charged out onto the ice with Luke S. between the pipes this day.  The boys played a tight checking game with Riley D. potting two goals in a 2 to 1 victory.  This was the best played game of the season by far to date. The 3rd Star playing a strong game on Wing was Carson D.; the 2nd Star playing another strong two-way game on wing was Jack H.; and the 1st Star shutting the door in goal was Luke S..

Wildcats vs. TC 2 Stars on Snyder
The Novice LL3 Wildcats came energized for their first of two games against Twin Centre Stars 2.  The boys knew today was a must win in order to take over first place in the GRLL Div. C Playoff.  A win would secure at least tiebreaker game.  The coaches reviewed some line changing issues to make sure we don't give up another breakaway or take another "too many men" penalty that occurred the day before.  The boys marched out of the dressing room led by Luke S. in goal with new team cheer.  It didn't take long as Tyson B. would race down the ice and scored at 9:01 of the first period assisted by Haiden W. and Carson S.  The game would settle in for awhile but the boys kept TC away from our goal.  Before the period would end Riley D. potted the second goal assisted by Tyson B.  Luke didn't face any shots on goal by the end of the first.  The second period would remain a tight checking game played mostly in the middle of the ice and in TC's zone before Riley drained his second of the game unassisted to make it 3-0.  Luke would face a handful of shots before the period ended but had the shut-out in hand.  After a pep talk between periods to keep skating and checking, the boys gave up a shot on goal that made it between the pipes to break the shutout.  The boys regrouped and tightened up their defensive checking as the clock ticked away.  The boys were preparing for TC2 to pull their goalie with a two goal lead but Riley D. netted his third of the game at 1:07 of the third assisted by Kyle Z. and Lucas H. to make the score 4-1.  Declan J. would bang home a rebound with a split second before the buzzer went to end the game assisted by Tyson B. and Blake D.  The final score was Wildcats 5 TC 2 Stars 1.  3rd Star went to Lucas H. for a strong game on defence; 2nd Star went to Tyson B. for a strong two-way game and 3 points; 1st Star went to Riley D. Honorable mention to Carson S playing a strong checking game on centre.  The boys played a solid three periods seeing more team play leading to the victory.
