Saturday October 31, the Thamesford Pizza U11AE squad traveled down the 401 to face off against the Ayr Flames


Today the team travelled to Ayr to face the Flames.  We came out strong in the first period and had many chances to take the lead.  Stella was a force in net throughout the first period making a ton of amazing saves.  We ended up scoreless after one.

Going into the second period Ingersoll started off on the powerplay.  The team was able to take advantage as Rowan put the puck into the back of the net.  Stella continued to hold off a tough Ayr offence making another great save.  Nick seized an opportunity to put his team up by 2. Ingersoll kept bringing the pressure but the goaltender for the Flames shut the door.  We ended up tied after two with a score of 2-2

Ingersoll was successful in killing off a penalty coming into the third period.  Ayr was able to score just as we were back to full strength. Our team continued to work hard throughout the period. Despite the continued effort by our defense the Flames were able to score a fourth goal.  Chase picked up the pace and added another goal to the board for the Express. It was an excellent team effort tonight with everyone contributing in one way or another, unfortunately we came up a bit short with a final score of 3-6.
