Down 2-0 going into the third period, Team Unfriended orchestrated a come-from-behind SO win over the Greyhounds 3-2 on Sunday at the MSA. Seamus "Moose" Moody played a stellar game in net for the Blue (21 saves, .913 SV%) and Joey "Bar Down" Blom roofed the shootout winner.
The Greyhounds got on the board early in the first when Kenny Lohr snuck a shot past a sprawling Moody at 15:35. TU outshot the Hounds 11-6 in the first.
The second period saw tough defensive play and solid goaltending by both teams. With 40 seconds remaining in the second period, White's Bryan Yeago raced down the left-side wing and wristed a laser that went top-shelf on Moody. The Hounds outshot TU in the frame 8-6.
Despite having to kill off four penalties in the third period, Team Unfriended managed to keep much of play in the Hounds' zone and put quality shots on White's goalie Tina Kirkaldy. On a faceoff at 7:35, Dean Bender won the draw to linemate Nick Karr who wristed a quick shot through traffic that beat Kirkaldy on the shortside. Two minutes later, Rob Lovaglio took a dish from defenseman Maggie Cearley, skated end-to-end, and blasted a shot that beat Kirkaldy high on the glove-side to tie the game. Regulation time ended 2-2 with TU outshooting their opponent 13-6 in the third.
The teams skated a fruitless 3-minute OT period and went to a shootout. TU's Moose stoned the first Hound shooter. Joey Blom ripped a wicked shot that beat Kirkaldy high on the glove-side and went bar down. Moose denied the other two White attempts to seal the W for Team Unfriended.
TU takes on the Ice Holes on Thursday, May 3rd at 9PM at the MSA.
