Huskies Sweep the West Gangnam Style

The Huskies were westbound this weekend for a busy schedule, taking on three teams from the Western division in two days of frigid winter weather.  While their first opponent in Sun County held the lead for most of the game, Hamilton never let up and delivered a comeback that would eventually reverse the outcome of the game.  It was a defenseman’s walk-in on a second similar attempt that provided the game winner and momentum needed to finish strongly against the Panthers.

Readying themselves to the engaging beat of their newly adopted dressing room tune, it would take only one goal per period for the Huskies to overpower the Spitfires “Gangnam Style” and garnish their victory with a beauty from the final face-off to defeat Windsor and record their first well-earned shutout of the regular season.

In a ping pong match that had the crowd on the edge of their seats all game, Chatham-Kent and Hamilton exchanged goals for the duration of the competition as one by one the back of the net was peppered at both ends of the ice.  It was only in the final period that the Huskies took the lead for the first time, still battling a relentless Cyclones opposition, and while the officiating appeared not in their favour, the Huskies persevered to eventually drive home the winner and secure the maximum points during their weekend road trip to the West.

Huskies Back on the Double-U

After a tough couple of games against Waterloo, Huskies have a comeback performance on home ice as they played host to the Lambton Jr. Sting, where two early goals in the opening period seemed to set the tone for the rest of the afternoon.  While a couple of hat-tricks may have been recorded on the game sheet, it was most definitely a complete team effort on the ice as passing and collaborate play-making set up a regular-season high in GF in a single game for the Huskies, capping off their victory with a short-handed effort in the final minute of play.  This momentum should prove uplifting as Hamilton looks to battle for 6 available points heading into next weekend’s busy road trip to the West.

Huskies Remain Positive Despite Pointless Weekend

Pillers Ice Haus was the venue for this afternoon’s game at Waterloo’s scenic Rim Park, where the Huskies took on the Wolves in the home-at-home weekend series that delivered on its promise to be exciting.  Hot off their victory the day before, Waterloo tallied two goals in as many periods while the Huskies tried hard to create productive momentum.  Nonetheless, their respectful efforts over the two-day schedule, including net-minding and overall energy, were recognized as valiant by their coaches and fans, and still ended on an uplifting note as they came millimeters shy of adding to a blue-liner’s earlier infiltration, almost tying the current East Division leaders.

Huskies Record First Loss of Regular Season

Host to Waterloo this afternoon, Hamilton delivered a commanding opening period that had the crowd at its feet after two respectful goals from the same front line offensive core bewildered the opposition.  But promptly and somehow without warning, the Wolves’ hunger became insatiable as they challenged the now flatfooted Huskies’, quenching their appetite with four unanswered goals which culminated in the third as they overtook the lead and defeated the home team.  “Tomorrow is a new day”, the team concurred, leaving the arena with their first loss of the regular season, but also with a yearning for redemption in this home-at-home weekend.

Huskies Complete 3-Point Weekend

In two fast-paced games to start the month of November, the Huskies came out with strong opening periods where an aggressive offense together with effective vision and pass completion from the defensive and neutral zones gave them the advantage on many occasions.  Hamilton squeezed in a win against Huron-Perth with some well-picked corners while settling for a tie in Brantford as a late give-away unfortunately took them by surprise.  The Huskies continue their admirable efforts at every outing, while their fans continue to encourage them to capitalize on opportunities to put themselves in a better position moving into the final period of their games.
