Squirrels Can’t Hold Lead, Settle for Tie

Posted on by

Desi Richelsen, Bob Valdes, Tero Moberg and Rob Myers in the new uniform.

The Squirrels were up 2-0 against D.C. Fire going into a rare five-minute power play, but they gave up a short-handed goal with five seconds remaining in the second, and couldn’t convert on several more power plays in the third. Late in the third, they gave up the tying goal just seconds into a penalty kill and the teams skated to a 2-2 tie.

Squirrels 7, Brewins 5

Posted on by

New Jersey Night Ruined, But Squirrels Still Win

It’s not often the Squirrels get new jerseys, and it’s even more rare that they don’t get to use them on the night that they get them. Unfortunately for the Squirrels, they were playing the Brewins, a team that also has black jerseys with yellow trim.

Many of the Squirrels, however, did wear their new custom-designed socks.

Weird moment in the game: Tom Fischer had a shorthanded breakaway in the second period. The Brewins goalie didn’t move. He was in his stance, but he stood there like a statue. Fischer was confused, even as he shot the puck and scored. The goalie still didn’t move. Was there a whistle he didn’t hear? Maybe a penalty? Were they still playing? The goal counted, and even as he skated away, the goaltender stayed in his stance. Eventually, he snapped out of it, but it was indeed the weirdest thing the Squirrels have ever seen in a game.

Tony Richelsen had three goals, Fischer had two, with the others being scored by Brent Machado and Mark Tessar.
