Barrie responded with three consecutive goals, taking a 3-2 lead into the final period. The Devils tied it at three when Dylan Chalk scored, assisted by Kade Osterhout and Everett Brown.

In the final period, North Central added an empty netter, ending in a 5-0 loss for the Devils. Goaltender, Benjamin Larmer, showed resilience during a challenging game.

The Breakaway Fuels U11 Red Devils Come Home with 5 of 6 Points
 
This weekend saw the Breakaway Fuels U11 Red Devils head north for three games in three days.
 
Friday night saw the boys arrive in Orillia to face the North Central Predators. Despite the long drive this one was all Quinte with the Devils scoring 2 in the first, 5 in the second and 2 more in the third to come away with a 9-1 win. Scoring in this one was Jayden Stehlik (2), Jackson Simpson, Kai Mackie, Evan VanEgmond, Tripp Plumley, Ethan Dowling, Kolton Solmes, and Jared Russell.  Assists went to Reid Haley (2), Mackie (2), Dowling, Solmes, VanEgmond, Plumley, Avery Thickson and Wade Robinson. Deacon Vos was strong in the pipes for the win.  VanEgmond took home player of the game honours.
 
Saturday afternoon the kids had a rematch of last years OMHA finals with a tough Barrie Colts team. The young Devils got things going half way through the first when Mackie bulged the twine. Assists went to Solmes and Dowling. Ryder Bradford would extend the lead before the end of the first with a nice point shot assisted by Stehlik and Greyson Rennie. The Colts would cut the lead in half just a minute into the second period.  It would stay that way until the Devils would score two goals in 30 seconds to close out the second period.  First was Solmes from Dowling and Mackie and then Mackie from Charlie Dwyer. Dowling would make it 5-1 half way through the third from Solmes and Dwyer quickly followed by a goal by Plumley just 20 seconds later.  That would be all they needed and the game would end 6-2. Jordan Andrews stood tall for the entire game to get the win in net. Kolton Solmes was named player of the game.
 
Sunday saw the same two teams battle each other again. As expected Barrie came to play and would take a 2-0 lead just three and half minutes into the game. This one was a penalty filled affair but the young Devils continued to battle back. Jackson Simpson would make it 2-1 with just over five minutes left in the second but Barrie would mange to score a powerplay goal with just 33 seconds left in the second to regain their two goal lead. The Breakaway Fuels boys dug deep and played a great third period and were able to battle back and score two goals one by Solmes and Simpsons second of the game would tie it with 8 mins left. The last 8 minutes had lots of exciting action but neither team was able to score and this one ended in a 3-3 tie. Deacon Vos preserved the tie with several big saves during a couple of 5 on 3 penalty kills. Wade Robinson took home player of the game. 
 
On Deck has the team playing their first home game of the season on Saturday at noon vs the Peterborough Petes on the Mackay Pad, before they hit the road for a Sunday afternoon game in Woodville against the Central Ontario Wolves.

Quinte finished third in their six-team division during the round-robin segment of the U16 portion of the tournament, beating the Markham Waxers 3-1 and the Brantford 99ers 4-3, but losing to Detroit Little Caesars 5-2, after holding a 2-0 lead in the first period and dropping a 2-1 decision to the Toronto Junior Canadians.

Later the same day Nick Colson’s unassisted goal early in the game gave the Red Devils a 1-0 lead over the Junior Canadians, but the Toronto team netted two goals of their own in the final five minutes of the third period to steal the 2-1 victory. 
 
Saturday’s match against Brantford was decided when Munnings scored with one second remaining in the game to hand his team the 4-3 win. Henry Fisher, Ryan Foley and Chisholm counted Quinte’s other goals with assists coming from Ryan Sherwin, Tracze, Colson and Clute. 
 
Lily Reid and Ayden Mullen shared the Devils’ goaltending duties, playing two games apiece. 
The Wendy Dufton was the second tournament of the fall for the U16 Red Devils.  Prior to London, they were in North York for the Toronto Titans Tournament, which ran from September 26-29, where they finished in a second-place tie in their division, sporting the same 2-and-2 record.

The Gillespie's Tree Service U15 Red Devils
 
The Gillespie's Tree Service U15 Red Devils squad saw their lone game action this week in their home opener on Saturday taking on the Ajax-Pickering Raiders at the Wellness Centre. The squad got on the board in the 1st period on the power play off the stick of Lauchlan Whelan after a nice feed from Andrew Laurin and Spencer Harold. Whelan kept hammering in the 2nd period netting two more markers to round out the hat trick. Harold and Jack Beebe picked up assists on the 2nd goal and Jack Sutton and Noah Kennedy with helpers on the 3rd. Austin Preston added a goal of his own in the 3rd period banging in a Jax Martin rebound on the power play to round out the QRD offensive attack. The Raiders answered back with a goal off a bad bounce spoiling an otherwise sterling outing for Nathan Ferriss in net.

Home game puck drop is 4:30pm on Saturday on the Mackay Pad at the Wellness Centre and the action gets under way at 4pm on Sunday at the Tom Graham Arena on the West pad.
