The boys played 2 games this week, an exhibition game against Barrie and a playoff game against Caledon ... details on next page......


Game vs Barrie Select 2-1 loss, We had a mid-week game against a strong Barrie select team that is 12-1. The boys played well it was close all game, all our forward lines were able to create scoring chances but we were not able to bury more then 1 goal on a strong Barrie goalie. Joey almost gave us the lead mid game when he hit the post on a shot from the top of the circle in the offensive zone, Barrie scored with about 1 minute left to take the game. Graham scored a nice goal  on a 3 way passing play from Kai and Graydon, Ted played well and earned co-mvp with AP Breadon who also had a strong game.

Playoffs week 8 vs. Caledon 2-1 loss, the boys put a good effort in this game. We exchanged chances with Caledon on several occasions, Ted continued his steady play and gave us a chance to win. We were down 1-0 and ran into penalty trouble, we pulled the goalie with about 1:15 to go as there was a face off in the offensive zone, Caledon was able to get the puck down the ice into the empty net to make it 2-0. A few seconds later Luke was able to grab the puck in the neutral zone and drive hard to the net, the goalie made the first stop and then both Luke and Owen V continued to poke at the puck eventually scoring and making it 2-1 with about 13 seconds left. We pulled the goalie and were able to get the puck in deep, we were not able to tie it up and a hungry Caledon team took this one. Thanks to AP Brady for coming out. Ethan was given mvp for a strong defensive game.

Playoffs - With the loss to Caledon we are now eliminated from finals contention. It's unfortunate as I feel the boys have out played there opponents in 7 of the 8 playoff games they have played so far and the standings do not reflect that. We have a couple of practices and games left, I will continue to work with the boys at practice to prepare them for AA and AE tryouts.
