Additional Comments: Lee Valley reached the end of their comeback season with an away encounter against league leaders, Invicta Dynamos. The team knew they wouldn’t have an easy time against such formidable opponents, but the Lions played from start to finish with real guts and determination. The Lions were harshly called for having too many men on the ice at 03:15, although similar lapses by the Invicta team went unnoticed. The powerplay situation gave Andy Smith the chance to score his first of four goals, assisted by Peter Carey at 04:28. Smith was sent to the sin bin at 13:10 for a tripping offence, but this handicap did not damage the Dynamos’ power, a short-handed goal slipping past George Alley at 14:36. Donald Gagnon scored the final goal of the first period unassisted at 17:15. It was Lions’ Ben Osborne who opened the scoring in the second period, his goal at 26:34 assisted by defenceman Ian Courtney. Andy Smith had a breakaway and struck the back of the net with another short-handed goal for Invicta at 31:09. This was followed by Smith’s hat-trick at 38:34 which was neatly set up by team mates and left George Alley no chance to make a save. Scott Beeson scored unassisted for the Lions at 39:41 with a terrific slapshot and the period ended with the score 6-2 to the Dynamos. In this period Lions scored with 2 out of 7 shots on goal, whereas Dynamos scored 3 out of a massive 16 shots, demonstrating George Alley’s competence in goal. Alley faced the same number of shots from Invicta in the final period, while the Lions stepped up a gear by shooting 12 shots against Johnathan Silvester. The Dynamos scored a further 3 times before the Lions could get past Silvester, despite the determined efforts of Matyas Vas. The first Invicta goal came from Andy Smith once more, the second was a cracking short-handed slapshot from the blue line and the third was a nifty team effort, scored on the power play while Ian Courtney served 2 minutes for tripping. The Lions’ two final period goals both came courtesy of Ben Osborne. His hat-trick was only the second Lions hat-trick of the season, the first achieved by Kevin Murphy against Solent back in September 2005. Ben’s goals came at 53:16 and 58:46 and were assisted by Nick Braithwaite and Ben Shrubsole respectively. The game ended 9-4 to Invicta Dynamos, but the Lions gave a sterling performance that they could be proud of, the Under 19s players again being a credit to the team. Referee was Dodsworth, Linesmen were Hiscock and Solvjov. |
