Squirrels 3, Scurvy 2 (SO)

Posted on by

The Squirrels didn’t have a good game, yet somehow won their 10th in a row with a 3-2 shootout victory against Scurvy, which put them in first place for the first time this season.

Earlier in the evening, Blades of Steel lost for the first time in ten games, which gave the Squirrels the opportunity to leapfrog them in the standings. And the Squirrels did so by using their goaltender, Adam Hart, who was highly aware that he would hurt his own team’s place in the standings if he won the game for the Squirrels. Regular goaltender Nabil Allaoua didn’t make the game because he was out celebrating his birthday.

The Squirrels came fairly close to losing, but not because of Hart’s play. The Squirrels did almost nothing the first two periods, going down 1-0 early and wasting nearly 7 minutes of power play time in the second, plus a couple of 5-on-3 chances in the third.

Finally, Tero Moberg found the back of the net to tie the game, only for Scurvy to retake the lead a couple minutes later on the power play. With five minutes left, Tony Richelsen scored, then a minute later Mark Tessar scored what the Squirrels thought was the lead goal. Instead, Tessar was called for hooking on the play, so the goal was washed out and Scurvy had a power play. The Squirrels killed it, then took two more penalties in the closing two minutes but held on to force a shootout.

Tessar and Jon Danziger missed the first two chances, but Tony Richelsen and Desi Richelsen scored the final two attempts, while Hart made the final save to secure the win.

Squirrels 3, Cruisers 1

Posted on by

The Screaming Squirrels won their ninth in a row Saturday, topping the Cruisers 3-1 in a game that seemed like it should have been much more decisive than the scoreboard showed. Paul Kobernick got the scoring started for the Squirrels in the first period, and even launched another shot which nearly went in. Jon Danziger put the Squirrels up 2-0 on the power play in the second period. The Cruisers capitalized off of a delayed off-sides by the Squirrels, which led to a breakout/breakaway. Rob Myers added an insurance goal in the third period.

The Squirrels outshot the Cruisers, 41-27.

Squirrels 5, Laughing Skulls 2

Posted on by

The Screaming Squirrels won their eighth in a row Sunday with a  victory against the Laughing Skulls.

The Squirrels started strong with a goal only 15 seconds in, as Rob Myers collected a rebound off the back boards and the game was 1-0 in no time. But the Squirrels struggled the rest of the period, giving up two goals – including a power play goal – and found themselves feeling rusty after going nearly two weeks without a game.

Then Jon Danziger’s 5-on-3 power play goal in the second period, and Brent Machado’s go-ahead goal near the end of the period, put the Squirrels back in the driver’s seat going into the final period.

The game was still well within reach for the Skulls in the third period, and they had an opportunity with a 5-minute power play, but the Squirrels drew a minor penalty during it and killed the rest. With about five minutes left, Danziger scored again, as did Mark Tessar, to put Squirrels up 5-2.

Tessar and Machado also had two assists.

Squirrels 10, Home Visions 9 (SO)

Posted on by

In the highest scoring game of the season, the Squirrels and Home Visions battled it out through three periods before settling the score in a shootout, where Tony Richelsen’s lone goal provided the difference.

The Squirrels got off to an extremely quick start, scoring on the first shift on a goal from Rob Myers. Myers then scored the second goal of the game on his very next shift. Home Visions scored before Tony Richelsen and Jon Danziger put the Squirrels up 4-1, but a late goal by Home Visions made it 4-2.

Tom Fischer and Danziger both scored in the second period, but Home Visions put up three of their own as the Squirrels held a 6-5 lead going into the third. That’s when Home Visions scored four of the next five goals, taking a 9-7 lead with about half the period remaining. But in a span of 22 seconds, Fischer and Myers netted two more goals, but there would be no more scoring for the rest of the period as the score stood at 9-9.

The shootout went beyond the standard three rounds as both goaltenders kept the puck out of the net. Richelsen’s goal in the fourth round and Nabil Allaoua’s remarkable saves gave the Squirrels the victory, their seventh in a row.

Despite the nine goals, the Squirrels still have given up the fewest goals in the league this season.

Squirrels 8, Pucks Deep 1

Posted on by

It took an entire period for anything to happen, but once the Squirrels started scoring, they hardly stopped. Jon Danziger had four goals and new father Tony Richelsen had two goals and three assists to lead the Squirrels to an 8-1 victory against Pucks Deep on Sunday. It was the second straight game when the Squirrels played with only three subs, but that didn’t stop them from dominating in the offensive zone.

The Squirrels gave up their only goal in the closing seconds of the game, which was sped up by the running clock in the third period.
