Playoff Game 4 vs. TCDMHA Rebels
The Walkerton Capitals would travel to Keady on February 23rd,
2019 to play the TCDMHA Rebels.
Walkerton was looking to keep its recent playoff streak intact but the
Rebels had other ideas in mind.
The Rebels would open the scoring just one minute into the first period. The teams would each pressure as the period continued but neither would have decent scoring opportunities. Walkerton’s, Kyle Graul would skate in on a break away and fire a hard wrist shot that would go bar down after beating the glove hand of the net-minder. The two teams would tied at 1-1 after the completion of the first period.
Early in the second period the Rebels would take the lead and then score again just 15 seconds later to increase its lead by 2 goals. Again the two teams would battle back and forth and test the opposing goaltenders but no further scoring would occur. Walkerton would trail 3-1 after two periods.
During the third period TCDMHA would add to its lead just over halfway through the period. The Capitals would score with just over 6 minute remaining when Mason Lina buried a hard shot that caught the inside post before coming to rest behind the Rebels goalie. The Rebels would then score two late goals and skate away with a solid victory.
