WOW! What a game!

Last night was the most exciting sports event I've ever participated in!

I'll write the full details once I see the box score but......

At one point we were down 4 - 1....with less than 3:00 remaining in the game we were down 5 - 3. The Misfits lived up to their name and committed a couple of crucial penalties giving us a 5 on 3 advantage. At that point we decided to pull Kelly from the net giving us a 6 on 3 advantage. It didn't take long to score and now we were down by one goal.

Each team had the puck a couple of times with time running out. The Misfits cleared the puck to our zone with 9 seconds remaining. Bryce managed to grab the puck, skate the length of the ice while the bench was screaming 6...5...4....3 as the clock ran down. Bryce was able to beat the defense and tied the game by getting his own rebound on his initial shot, the puck went in with 8 tenths of a second remaining in the game! Holy Moly Batman!

In overtime Kelly made the greatest save we have ever seen, the Misfits shot from the right hash mark and Kelly went down and blocked the shot, the rebound came out and the Misfits passed it to the left slot where it was then fired on goal. From his knees Kelly dove across the crease, laid out and stopped the puck with his stick next to the left post.

The defense grabbed the puck, passed it up to Scott who again beat the Misfits down the left side of the ice, fired on goal and made the game winning goal!

What a great way to end a season!
