On Sunday, Sept. 29, the Ironmen posted a convincing 5-1 win over the Walkerton Hawks. While neither team could strike in the first period, the second was dominated by the Ironmen with Corey Restoule (Kitchener) striking just over two minutes into the period.

Robinson’s second goal was assisted by Ryan Litt (Palmerston). Melady opened the third with a goal just over two minutes in, assisted by Tyson Koopman (Palmerston) and Logan Tolton (South Bruce). Jacob Bishop (Kincardine) earned the Ironmen’s final goal of the game, assisted by Restoule. The Hawks posted one goal just past the seven-minute mark in the third.

By Denny Scott The Citizen Tight game The women’s hockey teams from York University and the University of Western Ontario in London clashed in Clinton last week, bringing out hundreds of young hockey players to see how it’s really done. Emma Suitor, left, worked to poke a goal home under York goaltender Lauren Dubie, but was unsuccessful as York would edge out Western 1-0.

On Saturday, Sept. 28 the Mitchell Hawks edged out the Flyers 7-6 in Goderich. The Flyers opened scoring in the first, marking two goals before Goderich’s Jeff Fritzley of Seaforth earned the Flyers’ first goal, assisted by Jack Stecho (Goderich) and Nolan Gagnier (Brucefield). After the Hawks earned another goal, bumping their lead to two, Goderich’s Eric Vander Eyk (Listowel), assisted by Cody Treble (Goderich), ended the scoring for the period. Mitchell came out strong in the second, scoring two more goals including one power-play marker. Vander Eyk responded, earning his second of the game, assisted by Stecho and Gagnier, finishing the scoring for the second period. Goderich’s Colton Quipp (Monkton) started the scoring in the third period with a marker assisted by Matt Bean (Goderich). Mitchell earned two more goals before Avery Timmermans (Zurich) put one past Mitchell’s goaltender on the power-play assisted by Bean and Trent Michie of Belgrave. Gagnier scored the last goal of the match, assisted by Fritzley and Mitch Fisher (Goderich). Goderich’s goaltending was split between Spencer Lazarevich who played just over 14 minutes, stopping all five shots against him, and Jarod Fleming, who finished out the match with 28 saves on 35 shots. The Hawks doubled the Flyers in both penalties and penalty minutes, earning 16 minutes on eight infractions versus Goderich’s eight minutes on four infractions. On Friday, Sept. 27 the Mount Forest Patriots earned an 8-2 win over the Flyers. In the first period, Mount Forest marked four goals, with Fritzley earning Goderich’s only goal of the first after Mount Forest’s second of the period. The goal was assisted by Vander Eyk and Gagnier. Mount Forest put up the only goal in the second and three goals in the third before Parker Gibbings of Auburn earned the second and final goal for Goderich, assisted by Timmermans and Michie. Thompson and Lazarevich split the game again with Lazarevich playing over 46 minutes and saving 36 of 40 shots. Thompson finished the game, stopping 11 of 15 shots.
