Bantam AA, U15, 2015-2016, Rep (Belleville Minor Hockey Association)

While this is the end of the journey to OMHA finals for the Bantam AA Bulls they can walk away standing proud of the games they played along the way.   Last night Rosatte played an outstanding game making save after amazing save and keeping the Colts from showing on the board until the third.  A couple of close scoring opportunities happened in the second for the Bulls but problems with the net being taken off prevented them from materializing anything.  In fact scoring did not happen until 3:05 in the second.  Aaron Yuan took a shot on a net, Jacob Tinney tipped it to Eric Conlon, who ...

Opening up scoring 23 seconds into the first, Rose passed to Richards, who deked to the backhand to slide it in.   Feeling energized by beating the Colts to the board, the Bulls were able to kill their only penalty at 8:05 in the first. Channel and Birchard; Yuan and Williams  were clearing it out of the Bulls end and playing solid defence. Back checking by McLellan, Mott, Royce and Conlin were essential to keeping the Colts from scoring opportunities.

Despite a valiant effort last night, the Bulls lost Game 1 of the OMHA Bantam AA semis to Barrie 4-2. The game opened with the Bulls having the first shot on the Colts goalie at 14:33 that was unfortunately saved.  Shortly after the pressure was in our end, and while Rosatte was quick, deflecting two quick attempts, the third was a shot that snuck in.  Towards the end of the first Mott was high and picked up a pass for a nice rush but was denied.

Belleville drove to Kingston today to face game 5 of the OMHA Quarter Finals after a disappointing loss 4-1 in the home barn, FDC, last night.  The Bulls came ready to play!   Starting off strong in their first shift out, Tinney was able to put one in, assisted by Richards at 14:05 in the first.  Feeling a little spiteful from the trash talking received by some from the Kingston bench the night before, Tinney stopped to celly a little too much at their bench.  Not going unnoticed by the refs, he received an unsportsmanlike and 2 minutes.  The penalty kill line was fired up and after ...

Belleville met Kingston at the Invista Center last night for game 3 of the OMHA Quarter finals.  Both teams came out strong and playing hard with no points showing at the end of the first. Queen was in net and was on top of his game, unfortunately, Kingston got the first goal in the second. Not giving up, the Bulls continued with their strong offensive team play and finally near the end of the second tied up the game.
