Lambton Major Midget AAA Edged Out Cambridge
monday October 20, 2014
"Well I don't
think we deserve that game."
Head coach Jonathan Taylor said
after the game about the 4 - 3
win over the Cambridge Hawks
Sunday at the RBC Centre.
."We did not play
our game at all. I thought we
were very flat for having
yesterday off. To many watchers
and spectators and not enough
guys working hard. It's a win
but I'm not really happy about
it."
Cambridge took a
2 - 0 lead after the first
period. Seamus Mooney and
Steven Holmes scored for the
Hawks. In the second Alec
Dekoning scored on the power
play with Tim Kaldeway picking
up the assist to narrow the
lead. At the midway point
Jake Motts tied the game with
Collin Osler assisting.
With less than a minute
remaining in the period
Cambridge regained 3 - 2 lead on
a power play goal by Mooney.
Action continued
in the third and at 12:17 Brock
Perry picked up a pass from
Brett Barnes and skated in to
tie up the game. With the
game nearing to a close it
appeared it was going into
overtime when Marco Mini solved
the game in a scramble in front
of the net to take the win with
just :30 seconds remaining in
the game.
Lambton outshot Cambridge 29 -
25. Travis Moore earned
the win in net for Lambton
making 22 saves. Hayden
Padalino made 25 saves for
Cambridge.
Cambridge is the
only team that the Major Midgets
has taken a loss against as
Lambton improved their record to
8 - 1 - 0.
"We lost by one
goal and we let penalties get
the best of us in that
particular game. We were
shorthanded a lot in the third
period and it cost us."
This is the third
meeting with Cambridge and
Lambton leads the series 2 - 1
after taking Sunday's win and a
4 - 1 win Friday night in in
Cambridge.
The Jr Sting are
back in action next Sunday
October 26 when they host
Waterloo at 4:00 pm at the RBC
Centre.
