In Play Magazine
It didn't take long for the Spits offense to get going as Adam Henrique scored on the power play to take an early lead. A few minutes of quite hockey, led to Windsor's Adam Wallace and Oshawa's Emerson Clark dropping the mitts. The next face-off, Spits Harry Young got in a fight with Generals' Alex Dzielski. That must have got the Oshawa bench pumped up because that set up a goal by Alain Berger which would send the teams tied going into the second.
It took a while for anything to happen in the second, but Berger would score his second goal of the game and more importantly give his team the lead. But Greg Nemisz and the Windsor Spitfires power play took advantage of a four on three power play as Nemisz would score his 18th of the season to tie the teams at two a piece.
The third period was much like the last as it took a while for any of the teams to do anything before Eric Wellwood found the puck in the hash marks and roofed it to score a very important go-ahead goal. The following shift, Scott Timmins scored to put away the Generals and give his team the win.
Today’s In Play! Magazine player of the game has to go to Eric Wellwood. Wellwood had the game winning goal as he came through in the clutch and scored when he got his chance to. Not only that, Wellwood played a very aggressive type of game.
Bob Boughner, Head Coach of the Windsor Spitfires tells In Play! he thinks his team played terrible. “We under estimated them, we're not preparing properly and our power play was bad.”
The Spits will have three days rest as the Plymouth Whalers travel to the WFCU Centre to take on the Spitfires next Thursday. The puck will be set to drop at 7 pm.
