The Vanderlaan Building Products Peewees finished up their
exhibition schedule on Wednesday September 16 with a solid 3-2 win over the
Peterborough Petes.
The Petes opened up the scoring with 3:23 left in the first. The teams battled hard through the second period and with 5 minutes remaining in the period Lucas Culhane stuffed one in past the Petes goalie. Brock Kelsh assisted.
Less than a minute later Daniel Michaud fed Nate Burelle a beautiful pass and Burelle ripped it past the Petes minder.
Part way through the third the Petes tied up the game but perseverance paid off and Ben White sniped one with assists going to Alex Case and Aiden Treverton.
Ethan Fraser was solid between the pipes.
The boys opened up their regular season with a well attended home opener versus the Richmond Hill Coyotes.
The Coyotes came out strong and meant business. The Coyotes opened up the scoring just 12 seconds into the game. Nate Burelle tied up the game at the 13 minute mark with an unassisted goal.
After a back and forth battle the final buzzer sounded with a 1-1 tie.
Dixon Grimes got the tie.
Next weekend the boys travel to the West to take on the North Central Predators and the Barrie Colts.
