Ouch - that's all that can be said about this game as the Mooretown Flags took a 15 - 2 loss in Essex on Tuesday night.  The last time these two teams met they finished in a 3 - 3 tie.

The 73's scored 8 goals in the first period, 4 goals in the second and 3 in the third. Essex scored 4 powerplay goals and 3 shorthanded goals.  The Flags scored a single in the second and one in the third on the powerplay.  Total shots on net for Essex was 50 with Mooretown shooting just 20.

The Flags hope to put this one behind them as they travel to Wallaceburg tonight for a 7:30 puck drop.
