Back with a Win!!!!

The Hot Rods Hockey Club got back into the win column on Thursday night with an 8-4 victory over the Calgary China Towners. As it was their last game versus a Div 11 South team, the Rods still played well and fought hard, knowing full well the win did not count towards their record in Div 10 South. 

The Hot Rods got off to a quick start with a couple of goals early in the first. Ian Silkstone earned himself the Amateur Stuntman of the Game Award with two goals and an assist. He was understandably frustrated after the game, commenting on how he missed the hat trick on a wide open net, hitting the crossbar. Taylor Northcott also scored two, with Henry Leaver, Tony Schellenberg, Tom Hautzinger adding singles for the Hot Rods. Andrew McAllister scored his second goal of the season on a pop fly from the point... you have to be good to be lucky!!!!

John Barlow was solid for the rods making some key saves when his number was called.  

ICE CHIPS... 
- There was talk of possible attempted murder charges being laid against Andrew McAllister after an on-ice incident where he "accidentally" ran over one of the opposing players. He showed a great deal of  held up a second time when the opportunity arose to do it again to the same guy.
- Josh Delannoy pulled off a 3 minute shift in dying minutes of the third period, desperately trying to tally a point. His efforts came up short, and will still be hounded on the bench and in the dressing room until this fateful day occurs.
