White Beats Blue 4-2

(from blazerhockey.com)

The annual intra-squad game in front of about 500 fans at the Interior Savings Centre ended in a 4-2 win for Team White over Team Blue Tuesday night.

JT Barnett opened the scoring for Team Blue with a rocket over the shoulder of goaltender Cole Cheveldave for a 1-0 lead. Team White responded quickly as Matt McLeod buried a rebound past goaltender Cam Lanigan for a 1-1 tie through the first period.

Team White had a strong second period as Logan McVeigh was set up nicely by veterans Brendan Ranford and Marek Hrbas giving Team White a 2-1 lead. Dylan Willick gave Team White a 3-1 lead potting a terrific centering pass from Devin Oakes past goaltender Taran Kozun. Team White outshot Team Blue 12-5 in the frame.

In the third period, Team Blue made it interesting as Aspen Sterzer found a Braden Pears deflected shot first and scored, cutting the lead to 3-2 in favour of Team White. Colin Smith iced the game with an empty net goal and a 4-2 victory.
