Game 23: 3-0 Loss vs. Niagara Falls

The Falcons were looking to continue their good play on Tuesday night, coming out of a very positive tournament experience in Newmarket. However, the Falcons did not generate much the entire game, and were outplayed by an aggressive Niagara Falls team, losing the game 3-0. Our soft play against the Falls continued, as for some reason we do not play anywhere near our ability vs. Niagara Falls. The key, as outlined twice before the game and several times during the game, is keeping the puck away form the boards, and breaking out through the middle of the ice. However, the Falcons continued to attempt to breakout up the boards, which lead to a 3 vs 2 advantage for the Canucks each time.

Game 24: 4-1 Win vs. Orangeville

The complete opposite of how we played Tuesday. The Falcons came out flying, and were able to quickly respond from the first and only goal against us. We completely outplayed Orangeville and despite the 25-24 shot advantage for us, several Orangeville shots were simple dump ins that Cohen had no problem steering to the corner. Very strong games all around for our team, as the Falcons played hard in all three periods today, and began to breakout of our zone a few different ways, which was great to see. 

Players of the Game: Colton with a solid offensive performance, and Preston who had his hardest working game of the season
