Scrimmage #1

4:00pm
Pines Ice Arena - Pembroke Pines 1st 2nd 3rd Final
14UA Florida Jr. Everblades 0 0 0 0
Golden Wolves 1 1 0 2

 

Today's scrimmage marked the debut of Drew with his new Florida Jr. Everblades team as they travelled to Pembroke Pines to face off against the Golden Wolves in a scrimmage double header. The team has only practiced together once to this point, so we weren't really expecting them to look great on the ice, though I do think that today's result was better than expected considering their lack of time together, along with the fact that they only had 9 skaters available today.

The Golden Wolves dominated the puck, drastically outshooting the Everblades. The fact that they period was winding down scoreless was a testament to the defensive work and goaltending of the Everblades team. If it wasn't for a missed pass with less than a minute in the period, the 0-0 score likely would have stood. Instead, the Wolves were able to tap the puck behind the Everblades goalie to grab the lead with just 41 seconds remaining.

The second period was pretty similar to the first, as the Wolves once again controlled the majority of the action. The only penalty call of the period came at the 11 minute mark, as the Everblades were called for hooking. Thankfully they were able to kill off the entire two minutes, and the score remained 1-0 in favor of the Golden Wolves. Unfortunately they did score again, this time on a pass through the crease that was tapped in for the second goal and a 2-0 lead.

There wasn't much excitement for either team in the third period, with the only thing to really report out on is the tripping penalty against the Wolves midway through the period. Unfortunately that meant that they Everblades weren't able to come up with an goals of their own, and they would fall by a 2-0 score.

As I said, although the scrimmage would go into the loss column, the overall results was pretty positive. Hopefully with a full roster and some practices under their belt they will find their groove and have a successful season. Go Junior Everblades!
