Third Period
Summary - More of the same in the final twenty minutes with Westside capitalizing on their chances and taking away the chances for Prince George. Spruce Kings bench did get a pick-me-up compliments of Luke Hannas who ended up dropping the gloves with Izaak Berglund who was playing a chippy game. Spruce Kings players did battle for each other and it resulted in a few fights at the end of the game. Not the outcome the Spruce Kings were hoping for in their season opener, they were able to outplay their opposition at times early in the game. Perhaps the "Crowning Moment" of the game was the inability to pull away in the second period while carrying the play and having the two man advantage for almost a full minute. After that penalty kill the Westside Warriors pulled away and started burying their chances and built up their confidence.
Second Period
Summary - Spruce Kings had the momentum and the flow and the control early in the second period and were rewarded with a two man advantage for their hard work. Unfortunately they were unable to cash in with the man advantage and the Westside Warriors took over momentum. It started with a disallowed goal on a quick whistle, but after that the Warriors settled down and cashed in three times to take a 4-2 lead after forty minutes. Shots on goal favour the Spruce Kings 23-22
First Period
Summary - Shots on goal even at 11 a-piece. Spruce Kings lead 2-1 heading to the dressing room, but think they should be up 3-1 and I have to agree. Puck shot high on the near side just under the cross bar inside the goal post bounced out quickly ... thought is that the net is strung too tightly. They are brand new nets making their debut in tonight's game. Spruce Kings will have to put that behind them and focus on the task at hand as the Westside Warriors look a little disorganized at times and have drawn five penalties including three that overlapped giving the Spruce Kings an extended two man advantage. It was during that powerplay that the controversy goal or non-goal happened.
