Team White welcomed back goaltender Brad "Amberly Down" Amberly between the pipes for his first game of the summer series. Both tenders looked to be in game form as the puck was dropped to being what would no doubt be an incredibly close series two.
The game started off with the line of Alpaugh, Osman teaming up with the Ernie "The Cannon" Borek, who quickly showed that the success of that line had little to do with Rob Devries, as all three pitched in to put one past Amberly for a 1-0 lead.
All things seemed to be going Green's way until a terrible defensive play by Shawn Herman lead to a Chris Cervoni wrap around goal to knot things up at 2 a piece. Later in the game Herman also made a defensive mistake that lead to one of Ryan "I don't know what an assist is" Wiggle's 5 goals.
Clearly upset with his two mistakes, Shawn felt he needed to help his team out and did just that. Starting from his own end and taking it the length of the ice to burry one upstairs in close on the White tender to give Green a two goal lead. Seconds after the goal, Ryan Wigle decided to put the team on his back one more time and skate in to the zone and put one past the Jordie to bring the game within one. That is as close as White would get, as Green held off some last minute plays to maintain their one goal lead and take game one in the series.
Notable mentions to the entire Green team who all managed to put a mark on the score sheet, including Spence who was in the giving mood handing out 3 assists. While only 4 players managed to get onto the score sheet for the White team.
Game two is next Tuesday at the Western fair, with puck drop at 9:15
