Storm extends winning streak to 12 games


It was November 10th when the Storm last lost a regular season game. Over the past 2 months they have put together a 9 wins and 3 ties including today's 1-0 squeaker over North Halton. The team would happy not to see the Twisters again this season and their very stingy goalies. The only goal came on a powerplay in the first period. Jackie had won the faceoff in the Twister and pulled the puck back to Amanda on the point. Amanda fired the puck on the net and the rebound was banged in by Mari. Their was some close moments in the third period including a tense final minute with the Twister goalie on the bench. The Storm survived and Bianca earned the shutout.

The win was the 11th of the season which is at team record. The team is now has a 3 point lead over Mississauga and can clinch first place with a win next Saturday.
