Game 491 Recap: Riga Reign - DC Dragons

First Period

Just over one minute into the game, DC Dragons Winger 'David Cobberson' gunned in his 13th goal of the season to give the Dragons a 1-0 lead early on in the game, assisted by Hextall [20], and Dvorak [15]. Then around 7 minutes into the game, David gave his teammate, Lucas Grey, a chance for his 13th goal on the season. The pass connected and the Dragons went up 2-0 early on, with assists from Cobberson [20] and Calaway [26].

 

Second Period

Going into the second period, the Dragons had a commanding 2-0 lead, and things weren't looking to pretty for Riga. Luckily, The Frenchman knocked him his 35th goal of the season assisted by star teammate Kowaslki [68]. Riga's Daniel Clarke connected for his 8th goal of the season, and tied the game up 2-2 with 4 minutes left in the second. Riga struck ONCE AGAIN! Larry Abass Jr with 45 seconds left gives Riga the 3-2 LEAD!

 

Third Period

The second period comes to an end, and Riga scored 3 straight, gaining a 3-2 lead in the process. Only 2 minutes into the 3rd period, DC's Mark Calaway picks up a lovely goal to tie the game at 3-3 for the Dragons. Riga's Larry Abbass Jr didn't like the idea of that, as he fired his second goal of the game into the net halfway into the third period! With only 10 minutes to go, Riga had a 4-3 lead, and the Dragons were slowly losing hope..... UNTIL..... LUCAS GREY GETS HIS SECOND GOAL OF THE GAME! With just over 4 minutes, Grey nets one to tie it up 4-4, hoping to extend the game by one period. His hopes came true, as the game continued into an extra period.

Overtime

Only 3 minutes in... GOALLLLL. Riga's Sadie St-Louis knocks home his 27th goal on the season, and gains 2 points for Riga's season total.

My Opinion

Overall, this was an excellent game which involved a good comeback from Riga after going down 2-0. The Dragons desperately needed this win, but it seems both teams lacked defense, as there was a total of 96 shots this game. Big players came through in big moments, and thats what made this game so exciting and gave Riga the upper hand.

Game 484 Recap Malmo Nighthawks vs. London United (Score 1-5): This game was complete and utter domination by the London United after defeating the Malmo Nighthawks 5-1. On 45 shots to Malmo’s 34, London came roaring back after former United player Ivan Retoslav struck first for Malmo. In which London’s Leonard Triller also buried the puck in the back of the night soon afterwards in response, which began a hailstorm of goals for the English team. They would go on to score four more unanswered goals: from The Board Game Clue on Skates, Igor Molotov, Sock Monkey, and Molly the Cat. Jesse Teno had a solid game with a .971 SV% after allowing London’s only GA in that first period, which earned them the third star of the game along with second star Triller and first star Board Game Clue.
