Slayers send Old Puppies to the Dog House: Slayers 3 Dawgs 2

Game Review Below:




A great battle between the Slayers and Dawgs took place on Tuesday night. The game was played like a chess match, each using their respectable D to quarterback the rush. The Slayers, regrettably, allowed Jimmy Mackay to skate in for two hard shots, both beating Slayers goalie Dale Womack. The Dawgs had a 2-1 lead early in the third, but Cory Harper helped tilt the ice the Slayers way with a nice equalizer against net minder Greg Sykes. The Slayers blue liners held their ground keeping most of the play on the boards. The Dawgs did clink a couple off the post, but the Slayers forwards brought a pesky for check and tenacious cycling that was too much for the Dawgs to handle. Tommy Van Buskirk found the back of the net with a nice shot up and over the shoulder of Sykes for the game winner.

Game notes: Greg Sykes was building up a snow fort around the crease for the Dawgs. Dale "the wall" Womack was between the pipes for the Slayers. Womack recorded his first assist of the season. Richard was unavailable for the Slayers. Dawgs did not have Brit for the game. Slayers were stoked to have Jeff Watson back on the bench.
