Thundercats 4, Squirrels 3 (SO)

Posted on by

The Squirrels and Thundercats battled hard Sunday, but it took a six-round shootout to determine the winner as the Squirrels fell, 4-3. Despite that, they battled back with a pulled-goalie goal down the stretch to force the shootout, and Craig Beatty made a spectacular save in the final seconds to preserve the standings point.

Tony Richelsen scored early in the first period to give the Squirrels the lead. After the Thundercats tied it, Luke Chung, playing his first game since last summer with the team, skates around the Thundercats’ defense and roofed a shot. But the Thundercats scored again to tie the game going into the second period.

The game remained tied through most of the period, but the Thundercats scored late to take a 3-2 lead.

After an eventful third period, which included a few penalties, a washed out goal, and a missed penalty shot by the Squirrels, the Squirrels finally tied the game after pulling goalie Craig Beatty a second time. Demetri Bedel scored the goal as he, Cassie Campbell and Luke Chung put on pressure down low.

Back after missing the first several games, Mario Constantinou scored in the shootout, but that was the only goal the Squirrels had after five other shots, which Pat Reilly sealed the win for the Thundercats.

The Squirrels outshot the Thundercats, 35-32.

Squirrels 5, 2intheBox 1

Posted on by

In their first game of the season, the Squirrels put on a spectacular show, dominating 2intheBox throughout most of the game even before they scored four third period goals for a 5-1 win Thursday.

Granted, 2intheBox only had eight skaters and were missing some of their snipers, but the Squirrels only had nine and also were missing many strong skaters. Regardless, the Squirrels dominated throughout much of the game, though they went down 1-0 in the first period.

The Squirrels finally got on the board during a second period power play, after a series of perfect passes, as Nate Groves netted his first of a natural hat trick.

Early in the third period, Groves had two more, including a snipe from the right wing and a feed from new Squirrel Cassie Campbell out front. Geoff Grek scored later to put the Squirrels up 4-1, and Campbell scored her first as a Squirrel later, to go along with her two assists on two of Groves’s goals. Rylan Gottran had two assists for the Squirrels.

The Squirrels were credited with 51 shots on net, as Dave Tran made 17 of 18 saves in net. Brian Cox also played his first game as a Squirrel on defense.
