Sackville

Trap Game!

   

4EEDCC8B-DAB8-4720-9C72-FBC4127AB052 The Flyers rolled in to the Scotia Two in Cole Harbour with 10 skaters and a Master Plan to conserve energy, and pulled out a miraculous 7-6 OT Win over Cap Pelé Shediac Predators!

The Predators became Prey of The Sackville Trap which saw the boys play a style of game they’ve never seen before that they played to a tee because they trusted each other and never gave up!

The French Phenom started the game off with a bang outmuscling the Predator D man and ripping short side top shelf! After some questionable penalties and some absolute emptying of the tank the boys found themselves down 5-4 with 17 seconds left in the second, but Weyman ripped home a slapshot (off belangers leg) into the back of the net!!

After a much needed break inbetween the second and third, the Legion of Doom (minus Will) buried one home early and the boys kept the trap set all period long until a slight malfunction that found yellow helmet dishing a beauty to a fellow predator in the slot for the tying goal. 

With 1:30 left Sully, Belfield and Belanger left the trap and went back to the home base that saw Sully miss 3 straight shots in the slot for the win pulling the classic “it was my stick” excuse!!!! 

Overtime got underway and it was the 3 on 3 worst nightmare for anyteam east of Montreal as Belfield took the game, taking the puck from his own end, over the ringette line and ripping home the game winner over the goalies shoulder earning him the player of the game award!!

Huge shoutout to Gravy for battling through the stomach flu, popping halls and advil throughout the game, getting absolutely smoked from behind, overcoming his “broken back” and playing a position he’s never seen before to a tee and not complaining once. One of the most deserved Orange Hats of the year… what a beauty!!!

Game 2 against Brookfield tonight at 9:30.
