Late Night Win In Dartmouth
The Boys in Orange took their talents to the RBC 4 Plex and did not disappoint!!
The first got under way with some sloppy play from the flyers that found them getting dominated and outplayed for a majority of the first, which is very untypical for this gritty team, but some luck from the hockey gods, some big saves from Purcell and the big second year, Walshy, burying home his 1st goal of the night to let the boys take a 1-0 lead after the 1st.
The Second period went just about the same, seeing the Flyers not able to find their groove allowing the Whalers to bury home two of their own, but it was Smitty on The Spot who buried home a rebound off the backboards after Lively missed the net on a beauty dish out front from Harv!! Good things happen in front of the net!!
2-2 at the intermission saw the boys re group in the locker room, strap on the big boy boots and come out flying in the 3rd, hitting everything that touched the puck!! The Walsh Express was moving on the tracks tonight, laying the body and scoring 2 goals in the 3rd to get his 1st bantam AA hat trick!! Slavuta, the man of many words, was fired up for his teammate hitting him with the classic “hat trick” on the bench!! Fan favourite Bobby Ryan didn’t let his linemate get all the glory, as late in the game he put things away with a grind it out goal out front of the net to solidify a dominate 3rd period and an excellent team effort 5-2 win!!
Big Shoutout to Sidaruk for sticking up for himself and his teammates and letting everyone know the Flyers aren’t to be messed with!
Big shoutout to the Zamboni driver, giving the boys an extra 5 minute break with the snow mishap!
Another hard fought win, propelling the boys into 1st place with momentum on their side, take their talents to a rematch with Bedford back in the home barn Sunday Night!!
Let’s go Flyers!!
