The Hot Rods Hockey Club came away with the victory on Thursday night, topping the short-staffed Bluebird, 6-5. This was the second in a row after a lengthy winless streak that the Rods had had quite enough of.
The Hot Rods were able to get a 4-0 lead early in the second versus the 8 skaters on Bluebird's bench. Then, the Rods turned off the switch. They seemed to go into coast mode and allowed their opponents to score 3 goals and get themselves back in the game. The line of Galambos, Schellenberg and Potter were able to cash in twice in one shift to take it to 6-3, but Bluebird fought back to 6-5. Much to the relief of the Hot Rods, that was as close as they came.
Chris Potter led all scorers with 2 goals, which normally wouldn't be surprising but on this night he actually didn't even score.
Tayler Delannoy filled in for John Barlow and was solid for the Hot Rods yet again.
ICE CHIPS......
- the Amateur Stuntman of the Game Award was never officially handed out after the game, but Tony Schellenberg earned it in another hard fought effort. He was credited with a goal and an assist but had at least 4 points on the night.
- Andrew McAllister was at least -4 on the night.
