COMMUNITY IN ACTION

Sharks win Schooners Invitational

The SLC Sharks managed to defeat their Brockville rivals in order to win the Schooners Invitational. The Cornwall team didn’t waste any time getting the scoring started with Jesse Fontaine snipping the top corner just one minute into the game. Right after the goal, both teams took a more passive approach to the game as they started to show some fatigue by playing their sixth game within two days. The game remained tied until Christian Leger sent an innocent shot on net that handcuffed the Schooners goalie with just three-minutes remaining in the game. SLC-Brockville brought lots of pressure in the dying minutes but Justin Rutley would score on the empty net with seven seconds left that sealed the victory for the Sharks. «This was a really important performance for our club» said Sharks coaches Sean Boulerice and Mike Pettinella.

The Typhoons had scored twice with the net empty for an extra skater in the final 1:16 of the third period to force overtime.
