Martlets Sweep the Winged Beavers

In the second game of the series with rivals from across town, Westminster played strong in all three zones, and was able to capitalize by scoring often and in bunches. The last five games have seen some excellent play from the Martlets, and they go into a long weekend having won five straight. Westminster took the game to Avon from the first drop of the puck, and they carried the play for the majority of the game. Despite a few chances in the opening frame, AOF was kept off the board early. Their goalie also made some great saves early to keep the game even until Sean Clarke ‘19 scored with a shot over his blocker. Moments later Westminster would strike again as Tasso Housakos ‘18 fired a puck that was hard to handle for the AOF goalie and he was able to tap in the rebound. The first period ended 2-0 Westminster. In the second period the Martlets turned up the pressure and Ryan Doolin ‘18 snapped one over the goalie’s shoulder early to seize momentum. Jagger LeClair ‘18 capitalized off a great shot and rebound as he pounded his way to the net. Jordie McKenna ‘19 connected with Ned Blanchard ‘20 for a tip, and Clarke scored again late in the period. AOF responded with one goal late in the second to head into the third at 6-1. The third period was another strong 18 minutes from the Martlets, but Avon was able to earn another tally to make the game 6-2 at the final buzzer. Ian Shane ‘20 made some great saves in the third period and continued his stellar play. Hotchkiss is up next.
