Squirrels 6, Heat 5

The Squirrels won what at one point had the making of a blowout, but slowly became a nail-biter Monday in a thrilling 6-5 win against the Howard County Heat.

The Squirrels got off to a bad start, however, as they took a penalty only 14 seconds into the game and gave up a power play goal.

Jon Danziger tied it before the Squirrels took a couple more penalties. That turned out fine, however, as Amy Reich (who returned from injury) and Tero Moberg each scored shorthanded only 7 seconds apart. Brent Machado then scored less than a minute after that to put the Squirrels up 4-1 going into the second period.

Two more goals by Machado gave the Squirrels a commanding 6-1 lead with about half the game remaining. The Heat scored two quick goals to cut the lead to 6-3 going into the third, then scored two more with more with more than 8 minutes remaining.

The Squirrels killed off the rest of the game like a penalty, staving off what could’ve been an embarrassing Heat comeback and avenging a 7-2 loss to back in January.

It was the third win in a row for the Squirrels.

Squirrels 6, Outsiders 5 (SO)

The Squirrels came out on top of one of their hardest-fought games of the season Tuesday, prevailing in a 6-round shootout against the Outsiders, 6-5.

After a scoreless first period, the Outsiders quickly struck, scoring twice in the first two minutes. The Squirrels countered, as Desmond Richelsen and Don Marks each tallied to tie the game.

At one point, Brent Machado scored what should have been a short-handed goal, but the goal was called off due to a ‘safety issue’ involved another Squirrels player who was cross-checked on the same play. Down a man in the second, Danziger swooped in, shot the puck, and was brutally cross-checked. Machado scored on the rebound, but the ref blew the play dead to see that Danziger was okay. He was, and the Squirrels instead got a 4-minute power play instead of a much-needed goal.

Richelsen scored again early in the third, but the Outsiders regained the lead with two more goals. Danziger tied the game shortly after, but the Outsiders took the lead down the stretch.

Things got extremely chippy and there was plenty of trash-talking, and things turned even uglier as Doug Winters had his second run-in with Outsider Robert Donahue in the period. This time, Donahue tried to fight Winters in the corner, grabbing his head and tackling him. He was initially called for head-contact, but the ref downgraded it to a 5-minute major for roughing since head contact carries with it an automatic ejection and suspension. Needless to say, it was head contact.

Machado scored on that power play, and the Squirrels held on for the 5-5 tie.

In the shootout, Danziger, Neil Shah and Chi Pham scored, all using the same deek, and Torrey Pocock kept four of the Outsider’s six shots out of the net.
