Sackville Class!

The boys took their talents and positive attitude into the Old Centennial Arena to battle the Halifax Hawks, looking to avenge their last meeting and get back on track heading into playoffs!

It was The French Phenom who got things underway, crashing the net hard and getting rewarded with a wide open net rebound to put the boys on the board! After Elsy got hooked like a fish on a breakaway with no call, he didn’t let it faze him, battling in the corner which found J Jets in the “Holy F I’m wide open” spot too to bury home a loose puck in front of the net!! Who else but the Frenchman, burying home his second of the game in front of the net to extend the lead!!

The second period got underway with a bang as Hizzy listens to the old hockey saying: “Good things happen when you put the puck on net” firing one from Center ice that found its way in the back of the net!! After an intimidating Diller forecheck that forced the opposing D-Man to turn it over, it was none other than the Big Scal to make no mistake in tight!! Peh got his name on the scoreboard once again, with a new and improved tape job, ripping one under the bar on a 2 on 1, and with seconds left on the clock, the power play got to work, and The Veteran D-Man Jack MacMillan made no mistake off a beautiful dish from jets that put the boys up 7-1!! (One rookie D-man owes Coker an apology for that shutout killer… what a bad bounce!!) 

Huge shoutout tonight to the boys for realizing their teammate was on a hat trick watch, that saw Captain Will Elliott give up a breakaway and force feed a pass on a 2 on 1 to his linemate to try and get him that Hatty. Even a rookie Franky purposely took a quick 20 second shift to get his teammate back out on the ice to try and get his 3rd of the night but the post had other plans!! That’s what being a TEAM is all about, sacrificing your own success for the success of your TEAM!! It’s the difference between regular season records and champions!!! You love to see it!!

We win and lose with respect always, great classy win tonight and big game Saturday night against Cole Harbour!!
