We’ve managed to outshoot our opponents, usually significantly? In every single game and are 0-2-2; this be some bullshit Simon!

Game 18 - Vancouver Wolves vs. Calgary Wranglers

 

It's that time of the season again! Time for an all-West-Canadian matchup! That's a lot of hyphens and this game featured a lot of goals! The Wolves got this matchup underway late in the first period with a goal courtesy of Dogwood Maple. Going into the second period, Vancouver was winning but Calgary looked to change that. Just before the 14th minute of the second frame, Luc Tessier scored on the power play for Calgary. The Wranglers had tied it up. Unfortunately, Nico Pearce and Alexandre Leduc each scored their first goals of the season to give the Wolves a two goal lead. Now that the Wolves had a 3-1 lead in the second intermission, they prepared to close it out. The Wranglers needed two goals to get back in this one, three to get the win. So the third period began and was uneventful. For one minute. One minute into the third, the Wranglers capitalized on another Wolves penalty, courtesy of Leandro Goncalves. 3-2. The Wolves were still up one goal. Then 27 seconds passed and Saku Kotkakoivu potted one to tie the game up. And then a few minutes later, Erlantz Jokinen gave Calgary the lead. 4-3. The Wolves were now losing. They needed a goal in the wake of the unprecedented comeback from the Wranglers. Henry Eagles scored, to the relief of Wolves' fans, to tie the game up within in the last five minutes. Now we're going into overtime. Well, for 2 minutes and 38 seconds. Saku Kotkakoivu scored another goal to win the game for Calgary.

 

Game 29 - Riga Reign vs. Helsinki Titans

 

Europe time! Across the ocean, Riga and Helsinki duked it out. Let's get into the action right away because the Titans sure did. Hayden Rain scored on a Riga powerplay... for the Titans. A quick shorthanded goal 1:32 in gave Helsinki a quick lead over Riga. Both teams were almost even in shots on goal, with Riga only having one more SOG than Helsinki. This evenness was a theme in the first period as Ashton Komaryk scored for Riga to make up for the early SH goal they had given up. The first period ended and eventually, the second period began. Interestingly enough, Riga lead in SOG, 19-11. However, the lead that mattered ended up going to Helsinki with Chikeli Cholo scoring almost 8 minutes in with their first of the season. Hayden Rain continued to persist and eventually scored another goal for Helsinki, extending the lead to 3-1. Unfortunately for Riga, unlike the Wranglers in the previous game, they couldn't overcome a 3-1 lead and Helsinki held it together to give themselves the win.
