Finals Game Two
Game two of the Minor Bantam Bristol A Alliance final took place at the Nichols Arena in London Monday night, with the Stratford Cherrey Bus Line Warriors and the London Jr. Mustangs skating to a 3-3 tie, leaving each team with two points in the eight point series.
Stratford, who were handed 14 minutes in penalties to London's 2, fell behind 2-0 by the end of the second period. The Warriors also had what appeared to be a goal waved off, and were at two man disadvantages twice in the middle frame.
Four minutes into the third, Carter Lewis jammed home a loose puck to get Stratford on the board, trailing 2-1. Then 47 seconds later, Connor Otto took a Dylan Hall pass and put it over the goaltenders shoulder, making the score 2-2. One minute later Stratford found themselves at a two man disadvantage for a full two minutes, and the Mustangs capitalized, taking the 3-2 lead, but with four minutes remaining, Stratford converted on their only power play of the game when Otto s blast from the point drew the Warriors even once again. Brett Maguire assisted on Ottos second of the game and third of the series.
Overtime settled nothing, as was the case in game one. The two teams face off in game three of the series Wednesday night at the Allman Arena at 8:00 pm.
