Blue rebounds from 2 tough losses
Kitchener Novice Blue got there feet back under them with a great team effort that resulted in a 4-0 win over the Brantford 99ers.
Earlier in the week Blue lost to both Kitchener Black and Kitchener Red by scores of 6-3 and 4-2. It would not be a stretch to say we were out hustled in both those games, which resulted in the opposing teams controlling the play and ultimately the games. Adam with 2, Ethan S, Ethan R and Seth G scored for Blue in the two games with the Blue Helmet being witheld against Black and Vance winning it against Red.
The game against Brantford saw a slightly different lineup with James K and Nathan D going to forward and Adam G and Josh C coming back to defence. The team responded well to the pregame pep talk and controlled the puck and the play. Big contributions came from all over starting in net with Ryan N gaining the shutout. Special note goes to our wingers - Seth, Nathan, Dawson, Ethan R, Will (Lefty) and Stewy for their constant pursuit of the puck. Scorers for Blue were Daniel A with 2, Nathan D and Ethan R. Dawson M was the recipient of the Blue Helmet.
We should do well on Monday and the playoff round if we bring this new found attitude to those games.
