Jr. Sting beat themselves against Chiefs
December 14, 2007


     The Jr. Sting travelled to St. Thomas Friday night for their third meeting of the season against Elgin Middlesex.  The Chiefs are the hottest team in Ontario; recently winning the International Silver Stick,  Waterloo Gold Puck and sporting a 9 game Alliance winning streak.  They beat the Jr. Sting 8 - 0 and 2 - 0 in the first two games.

     The Jr. Sting were impressive in the first.  Blake Thomas scored in the early going assisted by Kalvin Thornton and Jordan Belanger.  They led 1-0 after the first  period, then gave up back-to-back power play goals in the second. The Chiefs added an even strength marker to take a  3 -1 lead into the third period.  The Jr. Sting pressed in the third, nearly capitalizing several times.  They didn't do themselves any favors;  taking 10 minutes in penalties compared  to 0 for the Chiefs. 

     The penalty kill did their job,  back stopped by a very hot Reid Rankin between the pipes.  Rankin made a half dozen or more highlight saves that included foiling two breakaways and one penalty shot.  William Brandon  (called up from the Jr. Sting AA squad) had a strong performance on the blueline for the short benched Jr. Sting.

     Next action for is Sunday night in London against the Jr. Knights. Puck drops 8:45pm at the Western Fair.  London will have their hands full if the Jr. Sting continue their play of late and stay out of the penalty box.
