CALEDONIA – The Caledonia Pro-Fit Corvairs will enter the Christmas break on top of the GOJHL standings with a record of 29 wins, 3 losses and an OT loss for 59 points.
Monday night the Corvairs closed out the 2014 portion of the season with a 2-1 win over the Ancaster Avalanche at the Haldimand Arena.
It was scoreless after the first period, but Matthew Hore and Jordan Peacock provided all the scoring necessary for the win in the second period, with assists going to Tyler Lapore, Jake Brown, Cosimo Fontana and Mitch Purdie.
They would need those goals due to the stellar goaltending they faced in Ancaster’s Blake Richard, who was besieged with 16 shots. Ancaster only managed five shots in the period but one of them got past Marc Sinclair in the Corvairs net.
After taking down the Canucks 3-1, in Niagara Falls Friday night, the Caledonia Pro-Fit Corvairs dropped a 3-2 decision at home Saturday night.
The Falcons began to fly at the one-minute mark when Paolo De Sousa put St. Catharines up 1-0. Tyler Lepore scored his 13th goal of the season at the six minute mark from Jordan Peacock and Matthew Hore to make it 1-1. St. Catharines’ Manny Manns put the Falcons ahead 2-1 by the end of the first period.
Connor Bramwell scored the only goal of the second period to even the score at 2-2 with 20 minutes left to play. Mitch Purdie and Kyle Tanev assisted.
Nicholas Dozzi scored what would eventually be the game winner at 14:23 from Cam Blakely and Broderick Kelly. It was only Caledonia’s third loss of the year.
The Pro-Fit Corvairs will be back in action Saturday, January 3rd, when the Plenham Panthers come to the Haldimand Centre arena for a 7:30 p.m. start.
