The Ralph's Hi-way Shopette/
Scoreboard Sports Too Pee Wee A/E Storm faced the Goderich Sailors
in a best out of 3 playoff series. The Storm pressed hard to even the game early in the second. The team's hard work was rewarded when a scramble in front of the net resulted in the tying goal credited to James Besito. Jeremy McMillan made some great saves to keep the score tied going into the 3rd. Early
in the final period, after Tyler Middleton rushed into the Sailor's
end, he passed back to the point to Justin Lamont. Lamont's shot on
net was stopped, but Taylor Schihl was there to put away the rebound
to give the Storm the lead. McMillan turned away any other chances
by Goderich to hold on to the win. Early in the second, Ryan Hopcraft passed the puck out of their own end to Daniel Buerger who fed it to a wide open Harrison Tew who went on a breakaway and put the puck through the five hole and into the net. The Storm looked to build on their lead, but were still winning by one goal after two periods. The Storm came out flat in the 3rd, and Goderich came out very strong. McMillan made some huge saves early to keep the Storm ahead. With 4:45 to go in the game, the Storm couldn't clear the puck and Goderich scored to tie the game. The Storm looked to score a goal, but couldn't before the buzzer sounded. Early
in overtime, Besito got a penalty, but hard work on the penalty kill
by Stephen Pilar and Tanner MacAulay, kept the score tied. With less
than 2 minutes to go, the Storm were looking for the series winner
in the Goderich end. From the side of the net, Tew passed out in
front to Cal Fraser who then passed to Besito at the other side of
the net to pot the overtime winner.
