Additional Comments: The game against our London rivals opened with the same vigour and determination that the Lions exhibited in the final period of the previous day’s game against Peterborough. Streatham fans thought their team had gone 1-0 up when the puck hit the post just a couple of seconds before the buzzer, but the goal wasn’t called. Although the Lions hadn’t been able to score they’d had a couple of excellent attempts and it was gratifying to end the period 0-0 against a team who were 7 places higher in the table. We matched the opposition in every aspect during the first 20 minutes and the Redskins (or whatever they’re called now) hadn’t bargained on that. The only blip was Vas getting a 10-minute Misconduct penalty for abuse of an official. The Lions held the Redskins off well for almost half the game, Stefan making some outstanding saves. However, Streatham broke the 0-0 deadlock at 29:13 with a goal from James Sanderson. Robert Rathbone followed with a second just over 3 minutes later, Stefan not really standing much chance of stopping it. Lee Valley were unable to capitalise on 4 powerplay opportunities and the period ended with us 0-2 down. Not only had the Lions’ luck changed for the worse but when Scott Beeson made a check the Streatham player’s stick accidentally got pushed into Scott’s face, breaking his nose. Scott was taken to hospital and the last period was one that the Lions would probably rather forget. Fatigue started to show, the defence weakened and the Redskins went on the rampage with no fewer than 6 goals, 3 of which were scored by Andy Maslak. Ed Koral got 5+Game for High Sticks at 55:22, but penalties were otherwise kept to a minimum. Just when Streatham’s young netminder Glen Jackson thought he was going to get a shut-out Chris Goddard came along with a brilliant powerplay goal at 56:01, assisted by Mark Swaine and Tom Looker. With less than 4 minutes left on the clock there was nothing the Lions could do to narrow the score and the game ended 1-8. The number of shots that Streatham had on Lee Valley’s goal were in double figures in the first and third periods and single figures in the second. Conversely, Lee Valley’s shots on the Streatham goal were in single figures in the first and third but double figures in the second. To me this seems a bit odd. Referee was Hayden, Linesmen were Holtham and Harris. |
