Read how the team did this weekend!
Another great job by Gina!
Friday Oct. 11th the Timber Wolves went up against their home town rivals the Ice Wolves for the 1st time this season. It was a tight game! The audience witnessed nice back checking by #14 Robbie Young, clean, controlled passes by #27 Kayden Curtis-Wolfe & #7 Jacob Bender did a great job of keeping it in the Ice Wolves end. #19 Hudson Vance made great turn overs, #88 Luke Collins sent the puck up high on the boards to ensure it cleared. 3:40 to play in the 2nd period #9 Richard Wang took a hard shot from far out to give the Timber Wolves a 1-0 lead. A minute & a half into the 3rd the Ice Wolves landed one to make it a 1-1 game. At 10:01 #77 Cameron Buck put the Timber Wolves back into the lead with assists from #22 Makhaya Campbell & #14 Robbie Young. 10 seconds later the Ice Wolves answered back & the game was tied 2-2. As fans sat on the edge of their seats, the clocked ticked down! Finally with 3:57 left in the game #66 Jeffrey Luo came off the bench & out of nowhere, buried it in the back of the Ice Wolves net making it 3-2. He was so pumped up that 35 seconds later he flew down the ice, deked out the Ice Wolves defence & planted a short side, top shelf goal (4-2). With 3 minutes & 22 seconds left to play. The Ice Wolves managed to sneak 1 more past the Timber Wolves but that was all the Timbers would allow. Both teams played a super game & the goalies were tremendous. Final score 4-3 Timber Wolves. Woo Hoo :)
Sunday Oct. 13th the Timber Wolves vs the Kitchener Jr. Rangers Red on Waterloo home turf. #4 Caiden Benwell, #13 Carter Milne & #44 Ryan Class were fast & furious on the ice. #68 Raine Lusted did an awesome job protecting his net, #10 Liam Karges worked hard all game to get the puck down into the Rangers end. 1:18 left in the 1st period #9 Richard Wang grabbed a rebound, swung around the goalie & placed the puck top cheese to put the Timber Wolves on the score board 1st. At 7:41 in the 2nd Kitchener tied it up. It stayed a 1-1 game until just under the 2 min. mark when #22 Makhaya Campbell made a sweet pass out front to #9 Richard Wang who drilled the puck in the net for his 2nd goal of the game making it 2-1 Timber Wolves. 24 seconds to go in the 2nd, Wolves #10 Liam Karges took a slashing penalty leading to a Kitchener power play goal at 13:41 in the 3rd. At 12:39 Kitchener Rangers Red wound up with a man in the box for tripping but the Timber Wolves got caught in a bad line change at 11:29 & ended up with a 2 min. penalty for too many men on the ice. #3 Ryan Godwin was on top of his game though & killed off the penalty by icing the puck deep into the rangers end. #66 Jeffrey Luo made an outstanding wrap around goal with 4:42 remaining in the game to give the Timber Wolves the lead once more (3-2 Wolves). Just under a minute later at 3:49 Rangers Red scored one last quick one to tie it back up. Final score 3-3.
Great job on the ice this holiday weekend by all!
