Game 2 against a Rough Six Nations 2 team
This game proved to be as good as the first game with good physicality and quick offensive bursts from the Outlaws.
Saturday morning the Outlaws had their second game of the tournament against the Six Nations 2 team who were also looking to put a check in the win column also. But they ran into a determined Outlaws team who showed no mercy and took it to them.
The start of the game had three goals come in the first period, two goals from the Captain No. 3 Blake Elzinga and one from the assistant captain No. 15 Nathan Coverdale. Assists came from No. 9 Jackson Kuepfer, No. 5 Chad Simpson and No. 3 Blake Elzinga assisted on Coverdales goal. The Outlaws showed great defence in this game as No. 18 Travis Beaven, No. 12 Chloe Eskrick and No. 4 Zoey Verwey all stepped up and killed a tough penalty kill. Great work along the corners as well getting the ball out by No. 2 Nolan Vessie and No. 5 Chad Simpson. No. 8 Madeline Ellis showed off her speed and size going end to end on multiple plays all while being hassled the distance of the rink. The end of the first had the Outlaws leading 3-1.
The second period had the Outlaws do a goalie change and out was No. Emmalin McLaughlin and in was No. 30 Seth Teatero. Teatero was tested early and often in this frame as the Six Nations team came shooting. Although on a penalty kill No. 3 Blake Elzinga, No. 6 James Bridges, No. 10 Ryan Heimpel and No. 16 Brayden Parsons all took possession of the play and gave No. 30 Seth Teatero a well deserved break. No. 3 Blake Elzinga scored a great short handed goal coming quick into the Outlaws penalty. Putting the Outlaws up 4-1. Not too long after No. 16 Brayden Parsons was able to get another one past the Six Nations goalie with a great shot. No. 9 Jackson Kuepfer had the assist on the goal. Quickly again after this goal No. 3 Blake Elzinga notched his fourth goal of the game on a sneeky shot. It was unassisted. End of the second had the Outlaws up 6-1.
The third period had No. 1 Emmalin McLaughlin back in net and No. 30 Seth Teatero taking a well deserved rest. This period had the Outlaws stand tall and the Six Nations team was only able to get a second goal and that was all, as the Outlaws took this game 7-2.
Game three was up against a very hard New Tecumseh team.
