OMHA Playoffs Round One
 Break out the brooms cause it was a sweep!

The Brokerlink Atom Rep Express team opened up their first round of the OMHA playoffs against the Paris Wolfpack.
 The first game opened on the road on January 11th and saw our boys come out with a hard fought 1-0 win. The second game would be back on home ice on January 15th, this game would see a little more scoring on both sides but our Express held tight and defended their home ice winning 4-3.
 Game three would be back at the Brant Sports Complex on January 25th. Coming off of a huge International Silver Stick win the weekend before our Express were rolling right along the track.
 As fast as the puck was dropped our boys were on fire and beat the Wolfpack for three goals in the opening period. To the credit of the Wolfpack they may have gotten a little chippy but they did not give up and continued to fight those puck battles on the boards. Feeling confident...maybe a little over confident our team collapsed into a defensive shell and let off of the offensive pedal. This lead to the Wolfpack putting two past our net minder and closed the gap to one goal. The second goal seemed to wake our team back up and they fired back up the offensive machine and extended their lead to two. 
 The game would end 4-2 and lead to a first round sweep of the Paris Wolfpack and send our boys into the second round of the OMHA playoffs.
 Well Done Express!

To play the game is good, to win is better, but to love the game is best of all!
