It was a back and forth game in Belleville as the Bulls hosted the Kingston Canadians for a Friday Night tilt. It was a high scoring affair with 11 total goals between the teams and the Bulls prevailed in an exciting game that had the fans on the edge of their seats.
The Bulls opened the scoring first with an incredible slap shot from Knox S. in the high slot that was assisted by Luis G. The bulls then kept the momentum rolling with a goal by Griffin M. who crashed the net hard. Blake P. and Dylan P. assisted the goal and the Bulls started off the way they had hoped in the 1st period.
The 2nd period saw the momentum shift and Kingston came out with 3 goals to stun the Bulls. Mason P. took a number of shots and made some great saves to keep the game close. The Bulls looked like they were going to go into the 3rd down a goal but Luke D made a play off the wall and skated into the slot with the puck to score unassisted and tie the game.
The 3rd period began a lot like the 2nd with the Canadians scoring a goal just over a minute in the period. The Bulls would rally and it was all Belleville from this point on. Atticus H. making his AA Debut this season would score on a beauty passing play with Nate G. It was all tied up when Luis G. shot from the slot and the puck would roll by the goalie on a deflection for the Bulls to go up 5-4. That goal was assisted by Blake P. The Bulls would finish off strong with a great effort by Atticus H. to score his 2nd of the game. Finally, Dylan P. would tap in a goal on a great passing play assisted by Griffin M. and Luke D to secure the win.
The team played with confidence and and teamwork to get their 3rd win of the season against a very good Canadians team. Next up, the Bulls are off to Peterborough Sunday afternoon for a tough game against the Pete's. Go Bulls go!
