The
Lambton Junior Sting Minor
PeeWee AAA were in action with 2
road games this past weekend,
battling to a 1 – 1 tie in
London and falling 3 – 2 to the
Huron Perth Lakers.
On Friday
night, the Sting found
themselves in a low scoring,
fast paced game with the London
Jr. Knights with action flowing
from end to end. The Sting
would find the scoreboard first
in the second period as Cameron
Adam would break free on a nice
solo effort on a delayed penalty
to give Lambton the 1 – 0 lead.
The lead would hold into the 3rd
period when the Sting would get
into penalty trouble, including
a 5 – 3 disadvantage which was
successfully killed on a hard
working shift from Joe Ferrera,
Alec Trusler and Tristan Haagsma.
The Sting would be called for
another penalty with just over 2
minutes remaining and the
Knights were finally able to
bang home a loose puck to tie
the game and the score would
finish 1 – 1. Josh Bayne was
solid in the net for the Sting.
On Sunday
afternoon, the Sting would
travel to Goderich to take on
the Huron Perth Lakers. The
Sting came out flat in this game
and Huron Perth would would take
a first period lead of 1 – 0.
Lambton continued with their
laclustre play into the 2nd
period and fortunately were able
to keep the deficit to 1 – 0
with some solid work in the net
by Jacob Knowles. In the 3rd
period the Sting were able to
take advantage of a 5 – 3 power
play with Jordan Hurtubise
wristing a hard shot to the top
corner, assisted by Josh Vale to
tie the game at 1. Shortly
after Cameron Adam would find
Dante Fuoco in the slot, who
would snap home a hard wrist
shot to give the Sting a 2 -1
edge. Unfortunately the Sting
would surrender 2 late goals and
lose by a final score of 3 – 2.
