... and you are going to have to click through for the result.  No spoilers here!

When we last reported, the Wolves were waiting on the outcome of a game between Kitchener Blue and Burlington, with a Blue win or tie needed to keep the Wolves' season alive.  With bated breath, the Wolves players awaited the results, though some dedicated fans decided to cheer on ​Blue in person.

Reports from the scene say that after a scoreless first period, Burlington got the puck in the net to make it 1-0, which is where the first period ended.  And with 6 minutes left in the game, Waterloo's hopes were looking to be dashed. 

Then strong pressure from Blue ​paid off with a goal getting past the excellent Burlington goalie, making it 1-1.  Could Blue hold on against a motivated Burlington? 

Well, not only could they hold on, they could go up by one with 4 minutes to go, and then very dramatically by a second on a power play with 90 seconds to go.  Unbelievable!

And that's where the game finished up.  So Black goes through to play against Sarnia in the finals of the Bristol playoffs. 

But it certainly wasn't an easy road.  Thanks to Burlington and Blue for great games throughout the season.  It's been fun!
