Hmmm...
UGLY goals usually means UGLY goaltending. The truth is that WBL dominated this game until the third period. The only UGLY thing about the game was the UGLY cheap-shot, cross checking-from-behind penalty from Centennial that injured the WBL defender and left WBL short on defense. That allowed Centennial to make a come-back in the third. It should have been a 5 minute major with a game DQ.
You're right about that!

Centennial controlled the first 10 minutes of the game as WBL only had 1 shot and it went in.
WBL capitalized on their opportunities and got the win. WBL scored a flurry of goals in the second that sealed the deal. The third period was all Centennial.
I believe Centennial would beat them 8 out of 10 times but it wasn't to be yesterday.

it would have been a much closer game if Centennial goaltending was on his game and WB defense was on their game too

I agree, I was surprised the refs didn't call a five minute major.

It seems to me that it would be tough to be much closer than a 1 goal game

yah i hope the kid the cheap shotted gjerde is reading this whole thread because no one, not even centennial fans/parents are proud of,what i think is one of the cheapest shots ive ever seen. hittin and being physical is all apart of the game, but when you pull somethin like that and injure someone on purpose? thats just un-classy and cheap.

From what I seen it was not a cheap shot. The WB player turned to avoid being hit which actually caused the collision.

Well then you didn't "seen" it very well. The WBL player was facing the boards, playing the puck. I was just a few feet away on the glass and saw it very clearly. He didn't turn away from the hit - since his back was turned, he probably never saw it coming. And how could the WBL player turning cause the collision? The Centennial player took a run at him. It was a combination of charging, cross checking, checking from behind and boarding and since it resulted in an injury, should have rightly been called a 5 minute major with a game DQ. Hockey can be a rough game, but there is no way to justify or excuse that kind of blatant cheap shot.
