Courtesy of Mary
The first playoff game of the day had the #4 seeded Polar Cats
playing the #1 seeded Rebels.
The Polar Cats scored first but Elise later scored to tie it up.
The first period ended at 1-1.
Joan scored on a great pass from Lina in the second to
make it 2-1. The other team tied it up with about 5-6 minutes left, and
then went ahead near the end of the period.
Score at the end of regulation was 3-2 but we had 3 penalty shots and
the Polar Cats had 1. We took our 3 shots first -- Joan scored to tie
the game, Lina scored to make it 4-3 Rebels, and Traci missed on
a chance to get an insurance goal. Lisa, subbing in for the Polar Cats,
took the shot for the opposition and scored to make it 4-4.
The ref said we would then get upto 4 shots per team to break the tie.
Joan took our first shot and scored! The opposition missed. Lina took
a shot and missed while Katherine saved the next shot. Traci
then took our third shot and made it this time, so the score was 6-4
Rebels... and Katherine stopped the third and final shot to give us
win.
Championship
03/27, 7pm - HOME vs Hot Biscuits
Courtesy of Mary
The HTHL 2000 Winter Championship game featured the first and
second place finishers of the hosting Rebels and the Hot
Biscuits.
Lina scored first for the Rebels against a score of the
Hot Biscuits. The period ended with no penalties and 1-1.
Linda and Carol H. collected the Rebels final two
goals but the Hot Biscuits came back to make the game tied 3-3.
The Hot Biscuits later scored the winning goal with 15 seconds
left in the game.
We lost the final 4-3 as it appeared we did not play our usual
game. Katherine was outstanding in net; it was a very
close game and we would have lost by a lot more without her.
As Carol H. or Linda said afterward, "They didn't win this game....
We LOST it!!"
