Squirrels 5, Silver Spring 3

A misplayed puck by the goaltender off of a face-off is a tough way to lose for anyone, and it happened to Silver Spring Thursday after holding the Squirrels to a 3-3 tie throughout most of the game.

The Squirrels took an early 2-0 lead, then fizzled. Even a four-minute power play turned into a problem as Silver Spring scored shorthanded, briefly taking the lead, before Don Marks tied the game with seconds dwindling with the man advantage.

The second period took a turn for the worse as the Squirrels took three penalties, including one overlapping, giving them little momentum. It wasn’t until late in the game when Rob Myers hit the puck on a face-off toward the net, and the sub goaltender, who hadn’t played in net in several years, let it in. The Squirrels added an empty net goal.

The best part? It puts the Squirrels in a tie for first place with the Jesters.
