Game Recap: Calgary Wranglers vs Vancouver Wolves (Game 423)

 

Calgary and Vancouver. A classic matchup no matter what sport or league it is in. While the Wranglers and Wolves may not have a true publicized rivalry, the cities certainly do. Both teams may have a W in their names but the Wranglers took the one that mattered. It started off with a first period that showed no goals. Then, the Vancouver Wolves drew first blood with a goal from Kakapo Bushtit, 14 minutes and 29 seconds into the second. Then after the remaining five minutes went by, the second period ended with the Wolves holding a 1-0 lead. Then, the third period came along. Saku Kotkakoivu scored 2 minutes and 6 seconds into the period with his 42nd of the year to tie the game up for Calgary. The Wolves had an answer 3 minutes later and regained the lead thanks to a goal from Robin Galante Nilsson. However, Saku's heroics helped tie the game up yet again as he scored his 43rd less than a minute after Nilsson's goal. The teams were tied and would remain like that until there were 3 minutes to go in the game. Shane Lazeski scored to give the Wranglers their first lead and eventually the win.

 

Game Recap: Prague Phantoms vs Riga Reign (Funny Number Game)

 

I chose this game solely on it's number. Is that weird? Yes. But it is funny to me so why not. The two European teams had a game as well. It was an good game for both team's goaltenders. Tobias Reinhart only let in one goal on 38 shots while David Davis picked up the loss but performed well, with 42 saves out of 45 shots. Alex Johnston started us off with a goal just over a minute into the period, giving the Reign a quick 1-0 lead in the first. That would be the only goal in that frame. Then when the second period came along, Brendan Talker scored just under 5 minutes in the period and Riga had a 2-0 lead. The rest of the frame would go on with neither team scoring a goal until there were 30 seconds left in the period. Darth Kaprizov scored to bring the Phantoms within one and to get Prague on the board. The final 30 seconds ran down and the second period was over. In the third period, there were 3 penalties. Two of them on Prague, one on Riga. Yun Chiang scored on the second power play with just over 3 minutes left in the game to ensure the Reign would reign supreme.
