Something had to give
Two great teams who had faced off in the finals time and time again. This time they played to decide who would have the oppertunity to face McGill. The Alberta Pandas and the Wilfred Laurier Golden Hawks played a thrilling first period. The Pandas owned the first ten minutes and the Hawks the second half. In the second the Hawks had the perfect oppertunity with two five on three powerplay situations to get right back in the game, but the Pandas killed off the penalties and returned with a ton of momentum. Halfway through the second Wielgosz was pulled from the net and replaced by Knox, it was 3-0. Knox played fantastic and gave her team the chance to come back into the game and regain some respect but at the end of the game Alberta was victorious by a score of 4-2. The most interesting thing that will be seen tomorrow at the gold medal game is the goaltenders. Labonte and Tarleton are still in my eyes relatively untested in this tournament and one of them will be the hero tomorrow night. Both teams chased the starting netminder of all the teams they played in this tourney, so does Labonte or Tarleton get chased tomorrow? It's going to be a fantastic game. Finally, the Ottawa Gee-Gees will play against Moncton for 5th...a meaningless game? Not if you ask the twelve Gee-Gees who will be playing in there last game wearing the Garnet and Grey.
