One of the Best Games I've Officiated !
That was the comment made from the referee after this contest ended to both coaching staff's. Blyth/Brussels downed the Hornet's 2-1 Tuesday night in Brussels as this game show cased all of the finer points of the game of Hockey.
After a quick goal 25 seconds into the game, Howick tied the score some four minutes later as Heipel's forecheck lead to Ben Devlin driving a candidating shot, buldging the twine behind the Crusaders keeper.
From that point on each team worked tirelessly to gain the lead. With both sides playing excellently at both ends of the ice and both goalkeepers making spectacular saves when called upon.
Finally the Crsaders took advantage of an opportunity and a deflected shot off a Hornet defender found it's way into the back of Howicks net. With the goalie out Howick did create ample opportunities, but without success.
Fraser once again supplied superb netminding.
