In a game that started last week and ended today, the Screaming Squirrels couldn’t overcome a short bench and ran out of time against a lower-seeded Stealthy Choice in the first round of the playoffs.
The Squirrels were in trouble last week, trailing 2-0 before the game was called in the second period due to ice conditions. The break gave the Squirrels some momentum, however. While the Squirrels had one fewer player this time, Stealthy Choice only had two subs and was forced to play defensively most of the game.
The Squirrels got one third period goal, and had plenty of chances, but Stealthy Choice held on for the victory and sealed it with an empty net.
