The boys took their size and talent down to Yarmouth for the season opener and handled business!!

Some offensive zone penalties put the flyers off to a bad start, despite dominating 5v5 that saw them off to a 2-1 deficit early in the first, but it was Johnny on the spot, Smitty, who potted his second of the 1st period to tie the game up, and the boys never looked back. 

The Spiderman, Peter Parker Anderson capitalized on a dominant shift from the spark plug line that saw him bury back to back goals after the boys grinded it out in the corners. 

Second period was as dominant as the first but the only goal came from The Big Harv, who buried home a beauty shot on a 2 on 1 after a nice dish from Lively that all started with a textbook breakout. 

The boys took their 5-2 lead into the intermission, kept their cool and realized that the game was far from over and you can’t win a game after 2 periods. 

The 3rd period was business only, as the boys kept their emotions in check while still keeping their foot on the gas peddle, finishing every check and dominating in the offensive zone. 

Rookie forward Hubs took one for the boys at the end of the game, letting Spidey and Smitty go out 4 on 4 while they were both on hat trick watch (that’s a real teammate right there) and they made sure to reward it as Parker buried home is hat trick with a big smile in front of the net as per usual capping off a dominant game. 

Thats just the start The Flyers needed to set a statement game for the league. 

Friday night vs Bedford and then our home opener against South Shore Sunday night!!

Big Playoff W

The boys from Sackville rolled into the Arena tonight for an elimination game and refused to pack it in!!

El Capitain, Benjamin Lowther got the boys rolling with a goalscorers goal straight through the five hole making no mistake in tight!! After a fast paced hard hitting first period the score remained 1-0.

A quick reset got the boys back on track and it was Keats who capitalized on a partial break ripping one far side to extend the lead to two! 

The Sombrero wearing rookie, Glover, caught a Chebucto player cutting across the ice with his head down with a beauty hit, sending the puck the other way for a patented Rod & Tod 2 on 1 that saw Tricky Trelly use his whole body to get the puck in the net!! Benny Slim took matters into his own hands again, taking the puck from his own end all the way down, holding it on the 2 on 1 and ripping it low blocker to put the boys up 4!! 

The third Period didn’t go as planned as Chebucto came out firing on all cylinders to keep their season alive, capitalizing on a couple chances to make the game 4-2, but with resilient play, some big blocks, a lucky post or two and some breathtaking saves from Becca, the boys in orange rallied and held off the Atlantics before their captain buried an empty better full ice to secure his hat trick and ice the game!! 

Big shoutout to Chase and Colp, wearing a couple dirty hits without retaliation putting their pride aside and taking the powerplay!!

Big shoutout to Foston, who flew around the ice all night long, emptying the tank and getting to every loose puck in sight!! That’s the type of hockey that wins playoffs!!

Super proud of the boys tonight, first win since January and whynot save it for an elimination game to upset the 2 seed!! Colesy finally got rid of his fur coat, a couple more losses and it was his to keep forever!! Big game against Dartmouth Tuesday night!!
