VHLE Finals Game 5 - Rome Gladiators vs. Oslo Storm

 

Looking to come back and keep their championship hopes alive, Rome came into this game 5 looking to reverse a 3-1 lead. They would need their offensive stars to do what they do best: score. There was a slight hiccup to that plan when they first got onto the ice. Julien Bernier took a penalty, giving the Storm a powerplay. However, that hiccup proved to be inconsequential as Rome would get a shorthanded goal courtesy of Franceso Mancini, scoring their sixth of the playoffs. Eventually, halfway through the period, the Storm would respond with a goal from Alexander Stroheim with their respective sixth of the playoffs. Heading into the intermission, the two teams were tied. They remained tied throughout the second, neither willing to give up an inch to the other team. After the second intermission, it would be Mark Calaway who would give Rome the go-ahead goal. It was all Rome in the third; they had twice as many shots on goal in that last frame as Oslo did. BjorkaBjorn BjornaBjorkson scored two goals in the last quarter of the period, sealing a 4-1 victory for Rome.
