Both Star Teams Burn Bright
In their 3rd meeting of the year; second and last meeting of the round robin, LL#1 faced off against the LL#2 in what proved to be a  nail bitter to the very end.

Early on  LL#1 controlled the majority of the play in the offensive end, allowing Mathais C the opportunity to score the first goal of the game with 1:26 left in period 1. LL#2 would have none of that and quickly tied the score with 0:19 seconds left in the 1st. Not letting up Jaxsen L popped in the 2nd goal at 9:33 of period 2 followed by a slap shot goal by Andrew R at 7:11 of the second and our favorite Stars were back on top. Coming down to the last minutes in the 3rd period LL#2 put the pressure on and were rewarded with 2 goals tying the game with a 1:18 left. With everyone holding their collective breath LL#1 off the face off took the put down the ice and on a scramble play in front of the net Alan D was awarded with the game winning goal assisted by his line mates Hayden F and Andrew R at the 1:07 mark of the 3rd. From that point on with the goalie pulled LL#2 put the pressure on but it was just not enough. A great game by both teams tonight, one they can hang their hats proudly on. Hard hat player of the game was awarded to Sam M for his great effort up front doubling his shot totals for the year. The Smartie award was handed proudly to Michael B for a fine diving effort to knock the puck away from an LL# 2 player on the break away. An excellent job by the whole team.  Shout outs go to Seager G for another fine effort between the pipes too Ethan E, Alex L, Logan G for their wonderful play on the blue line and Jaden G for his great fore check keeping the puck in the oppositions end.

A great game boys now its time to get ready for those Huskies on Saturday.

Go Stars!!!
