Barn Burner Part II:
Sarnia Pull Off Another Come From Behind
Tie!
For the second
straight game Sarnia were involved in an
action packed, old fashioned barn
burner, which saw them come back, being
down 7-3 at one point, to tie it 8-8
with the Oakridge team in London.
The first period
started as many of our games do…2 early
goals from the Oakridge team. Sarnia
had a lot of chances but were victims of
a lot of blocked shots and were unable
to find the twine. The period ended
2-0.
The second period was
a scoring frenzy, 5 by Oakridge, but
more importantly 3 by the good guys.
The first goal came from some super
forechecking by the Hart, Brown and Adam
line which created a goal from Cameron
Adam on his knees. The second, again
came the Adam, Brown, Hart line as Adam
was able to slip it under the goalie.
The third goal came from some great puck
movement from the line of Fuoco, Cossa,
Discanno and defensive pair of Marks and
Williams, which ended with a goal by
Marcus Cossa. At the end of the second
it was 7-3.
The third period was
all Sarnia, who pulled up their boot
straps and got back into this game by
scoring 5 unanswered goals. The first
came from Ryan Brown who made great play
and tucked it under a sprawling goalie.
Next goal came from a Cam combo…Cameron
Adam made great pass to Cameron Rannie
who skated in made a great high wrist
shot that found the top of the net.
This was followed up by a shorthanded
goal by Ryan Brown who scored despite
being tripped up. The line of
Steeves, Rannie, Schroeter, Allardyce
and Groulx got into the action next with
some strong pressure, which was finally
finished off by Max Steeves to make it
7-7. The comeback was complete as the
line of Nienhuis, Schoch, Brown, and
Hart were able to set up Cameron Adam
for his hat-trick and the go ahead
goal. Unfortunately, with 38.9 seconds
remaining Oakridge were able to tie it
back up and the game ended 8-8.
Super effort boys!
You show some real character with this
tie and a never give up attitude! Keep
it up!
