January 4 vs Team Blue
We played a good balanced game, and although we had a big third period push, we couldn't tie it in the end.

The first period started off very strong with lots of pressure in the offensive end. Our goalie was quick with a save early on with a slap shot from the slot and later with a nice poke check. However, Team Blue scored with a nice deke on a break away at 2:42 and then added a second shortly after on a rebound at 2:21. Then with just over a minute to go Blue went up 3-0.

We didn't give up at this point going into the Second Period though as we fought back with good pressure through the period. Our hard work was rewarded when Gabe scored with an assist from Dom at 1:50. That was the only goal for either side as we played well in both ends and swapped chances with the opposition.

At 10:13 of the third blue struck again to make it 4-1, but Dom scored on an assist from Hunter at 4:48! It was 
4-2 and we were working hard to tie the game. It was a great surge as Hunter and  Ethan assisted on another goal for Dom at 3:47! We were in striking distance making it 4-3! Unfortunately, Blue managed a late goal at 3:24 remaining ending the game with a score of 5-3.

This game is another fine example of the character in this team. We may get down a couple of goals, but we never give up and stay positive for the entire game!

Hunter was named Player of the Game for his two big assists and his incredible desire to help the team! 
Keep up the great work  team Black as we go into the Playoffs! It's a brand new season!

 Work Hard, Play Hard and Have Fun!
