North Halton goalies shut down Storm again


After facing 40 shots just over a week ago, the North Halton Twisters goalie stops 28 out 29 shots to once again sneak away with a tie against the Storm. The plucky, young Twisters have been doing it all season long. They scored only 13 goals in 11 games but have also only given up 13 goal to earn 7 ties. They have only given up more than 2 goals once all season.

The only goal by the Storm was scored by Kailee in the third period on a rebound after the Twister goalie had made the initial save on a shot by Mari. But the Storm weren't able to dent the strong defense of the young North Halton team who only managed 7 shots but was able to get one behind Bianca. The good news is that the Storm almost went to entire two games without a penalty. Lauren N wisely knocked down a Twister player with only 34 seconds remaining in the game to prevent a breakaway but the Storm easily killed off the remaining time.
