Top-seeded Blades of Steel ended the Screaming Squirrels’ season Sunday, as Adam Hart’s 30-save shut-out made the difference. With six extra players dressed, Blades of Steel’s two goals came by wearing down the Squirrels and making great plays. However, they didn’t strike until the end of the first period, then early in the second. After nearly two minutes of the Squirrels zone time in the end, Blades of Steel broke loose and added an empty-netter, and will now play for the Bronze 1 championship.

The new Squirrels season will begin in mid-September.

Blades of Steel again got the best of the Screaming Squirrels on Sunday, but this time by a much close margin as the first place team squeaked by with a 2-1 win behind the goaltending of Adam Hart.

The Squirrels let in two goals int he first two periods, but kept up the pressure through the very end. The only goal came from Jordan Shirey, his first as a Squirrels.

Considering Blades of Steel had more than twice as many skaters as the Squirrels, the game was pretty close for nearly three periods Sunday, but Blades of Steel pulled away in the final moments for a 4-1 win.

Charles Warner scored first fir the Squirrels, the Blades of Steel notched two in the first period for a 2-1 lead. It would stay that way until there were less than four minutes remaining in the third, when the insurance goal went in. BoS added an empty netter after escaping the Squirrels pressure down the stretch.
