Tough Loss for the Hot Rods...

The Hot Rods Hockey Club lost a tough one on Friday night, falling 5-3 in their first Div 10 South game against the Duffmen.

The Rods fell behind 4-0 before Taylor Northcott got on the scoresheet. Rylan Northcott made a great defensive play, intercepting a pass to spring himself on a breakaway to pull within two.  Sean Vander Linden scored his first goal ever on a great individual effort, cleaning up his own rebound to make it 4-3 and earning him the "Amateur Stuntman of the Game" Award. The Hot Rods were able to tie it up, but the officials made a bullshit call and waved off the goal, claiming Tony Schellenberg interfered with the Duffmen goaltender.

After a few great chances in the dying minutes, goaltender John Barlow skated to the bench to allow the 6th attacker for the Rods. The tactic was unsuccessful and the Duffmen were able to pot an empty-netter to make the final 5-3.

ICE CHIPS.......
- Cam Campbell may have made the play of the game, blatantly taking out their best player, getting a penalty for it and somehow drawing one as well.... Nice work, Cam.

- Josh Delannoy was able to get the monkey off his back and contribute two assists to the cause. No goals yet though.....

The first of many!!!
