| After a long layoff, made longer by two Covid related 
			postponements, Drew and his Riverview Ice Sharks teammates returned 
			to the ice bright an early this morning to face off against the Land 
			O' Lakes Fighting Gators junior varsity hockey team. It took a 
			while for the team to get going this morning, which we can only 
			partially blame on the start time today! Despite dominating the puck 
			throughout the first period, the Sharks couldn't find a way to get 
			one by the Gators goaltender. The second period was a near duplicate 
			of the first, as the Sharks out-shot the Gators through two by a 
			22-4 margin. Thankfully the last of those shots was knocked into the 
			back of the net on a rebound late in the second period, with just 40 
			seconds remaining, giving the Sharks a 1-0 lead. The third period was much more even in terms of shots (4-3 in 
			favor of the Sharks), but the goal differential was much more 
			drastic. Riverview scored on their first two shots of the period, 
			widening their edge on the scoreboard to 3-0 midway through the 
			period. They would add a shorthanded goal later on, bringing the 
			score to it's final 4-0 total. A great return to the ice! |
