Friendly game?
When you get two teams that almost all of the kids on both sides go to the same high school together, you would think it might be a friendly game, or at least that's what the players would have you believe before the game starts.
Things seemed to be going along fairly smoothly in this contest of friends. The first period contained no goals and no penalties, in fact, it wasn't until halfway through the 2nd period that there was a goal, on what turned out to be a bad clearing attempt by the Lindsay net-minder, before he knew it, the puck was right back behind him. His team mates though would not let that goal go unanswered. Just over a minute later Kole was to find himself in the correct spot to put the puck behind the Mariposa net-minder, and less than 20 seconds later Mike C put home his first of the game to Lindsay into the lead heading to the flood.
shortly after the 3rd period got started, Mike C would find the net again for his 2nd goal of the game, a goal that would stand as the winner since Lindsay would not relinquish the lead again. Within the first 4 minutes of the 3rd period, Liam picked up the puck inside his own blue line and rushed all the way down the ice to deke the Mariposa net-minder, and Wil blasted a puck along the ice from outside the blue line to put Lindsay up 5 - 1 at that point. Mariposa would come back to score 1 more goal before the home side finished the game off with 2 more goals of their own.
