A Big Comeback
! Another exciting game for Goderich Novice LL#2. The team was at home playing Goderich LL#1 for the first time this season.
The game started out slowly as the opposing team dominated play for the first period. We had a couple good chances but couldn’t seem to mount much offence. Jack did an amazing job in net, but the first period ended with Goderich 2 being down by 2 goals.
The second period started out a little better but the opposition scored another goal to make it 3-0. Midway through the 2nd period the team finally came alive. Goderich 2 got on the board with a nice goal from Peyton assisted by Ben. The period ended 3-1.
The third period saw the team start to skate much better and the tide started to turn. Eli scored the 2nd goal with an assist by Eric V. The defence did a great job of shutting the opposing team down and allow the forwards to keep pushing for the tying goal. With 3 minutes left, the team finally tied it up with an exciting goal from Eli assisted by Evan. There were more chances by Goderich 1, but Jack shut the opposition down and the game ended a tie. The whole team should be congratulated for not giving up and fighting back to tie the game.
