Point Edward Bantams dominated in third
January 20, 2012


The Point Edward Bantams travelled to Strathroy to play the Rockets in Lambton-Middlesex league action and produced a seven goal third period to beat the Rockets 9-0 in regular season play.
 

Strathroy came out a bit sluggish to start the game and the Hawks didn’t give them any slack as they hit the scoreboard early. Two and half minutes in and with the play in the Rockets end, Conroy let one rip from the blue-line to beat the Rockets goalie to give the Point a 1-0 early lead.  Immediately after the next face-off the Hawks drove into the Rockets end with Taylor and Boccanfuso setting up McGugan to take a comfortable 2-0 lead. This seemed to wake up the Rockets who were able to keep the Point forwards away from their net.
 

The second period saw a more defensive style of play from both teams and the Hawks defensive team played well and didn’t let the Rockets have any second chances at the net. Midway through the period, the Point got into penalty trouble but they were able to handle the Strathroy offensive rush. As the period came to a close, it could be seen that the Point team was gaining momentum and controlling the play of the game quite well.
 

The third period saw the Hawks take full control of the game with seven unanswered goals. Smith set the pace 30 seconds into the period with an unassisted goal that led to four more goals being scored by Boccanfuso, Stevenson, Marr and Taylor in the first five minutes of the period. Strathroy finally regained their composure but couldn’t muster up an offensive push to get on the board. By the time the horn rang to end the game the Hawks got two more goals by McGugan and Marr to end the game 9-0.
 

Collins and Fortey shared the duties in net and got the shot-out.
