Round 7 A’s Match Report

// January 14th, 2010 // Season 2009/2010

November 22nd saw the Sharks a little light on for players with only 8 court players and a goalkeeper in the A’s. The Pirates may have thought that they had the game in the bag for this reason, but Espen and Adrian soon shocked them out of any such securities (2mins30, goal #15 Espen Kjerup Jorgensen, assist #6 Adrian Baster). The first period was dominated by the Pirates efforts to score, but they couldn’t break through the tight Sharks’ defense, so #10 Don O’Brien may have helped them along, scoring an own goal on goalkeeper #91 Jacob Stanley (17mins50).

Sharks started the scoring again at 2mins30, this time #11 David Westlund slipped it past Pirates goalkeeper #1 Jason Petty (assist #13 Pat Baster). Adrian increased the score margin from a prime spot in the goal square to 3-1 at 6mins11 (goal #6 Adrian, assist #15 Espen). At 13mins00 Pirate player #5 Derek Kippo scored the first true goal for his team assisted by #3 Jonathon Veron. Pirates then drew the scores at 3 a piece thanks to their player #2, Trevor Lynn (14mins00, assist #7 Luca Ray-Hills). Were the Sharks worried? Aparently not for long, as David scored in 30 seconds to bring Sharks back into the lead (14mins30, goal #11, assist #13). Captain Pat Baster (#13) scored his first goal for the match at 17mins50 to increase Sharks’ lead to 5-3 (assist #15 Espen).

Action in the third period started at 8mins00 when Espen scored unassisted. It took Pirates only 30secs to make a successful counter-attack, P#2 Trevor Lynn scored his second goal of the match, assisted by P#25 Stefan Ray-Hills (8mins30). Pirates were trying to break the Sharks defense, but to no further avail. Pirates player #25 was given a 2min bench penalty for Header. The bench penalty had no effect on the game, as Sharks couldn’t get an effective PowerPlay rolling. The 2 minutes passed uneventfully. At 14mins50 P#2 scored his third goal of the game, sealing a hat-trick, assisted by #25. The Sharks leading margin was disappearing, it was an intense last 5 minutes of the match! The Pirates were keen to score another goal, launching attack after attack on the Sharks defense, and in the dying seconds of the game… Espen Kjerup Jorgensen slips one past the Pirates defense! (19mins59, goal #15 Espen Jorgensen, assist #11 David Westlund).

A great finish!

7-5 (1-1, 4-2, 3-2)
