Back on track
After last night's game, almost anything would have looked better.
Tonight as the visiting team, Teal came out with much more determination than they did in the previous game, and that determination paid off before the end of the first when Liam potted his team leading 11th goal of the season, and once again Lindsay escaped the first period without a penalty.
With time starting to wind down in the 2nd period, Mike P popped home a loose puck to give the visitors a 2-0 lead, however that was short lived as the home side came back with a goal of their own just a minute later to go into the flood down by just a single goal.
The third period got started with Lindsay getting their two goal lead back just a minute and 8 seconds into the frame when Mike P got his 2nd goal of the game, but again it was short lived as the Kawartha team quickly got their 2nd of the game just 26 seconds later. The scored stayed that way until about 4 minutes left in the game when Lindsay got their two goal lead back thanks to Brock and his team lead tying 11th goal of the season, but once again the same theme would come back as the home team got another goal 1:16 later at the start of a 4 minute power play. Now with just under 3 minutes remaining, Lindsay had to try and hold off a battling home side still on the power play. Fortunately with some good clearing of the puck and good goal-tending, everything stayed status quo for the 4-3 victory for Lindsay, the same score as the first time these two opponents met this season. Lindsay moves on to continue their busy week with a game in Beaverton on Saturday night.
