MONCTON, N.B. - Stinging from their defeat against the UNB Varsity Reds on Friday, the Axemen took to the ice in Moncton on Saturday evening. At first, it appeared as though the Blue Eagles would run Acadia right out of the rink. At the end of a disastrous first period for Acadia, the score read 4-1 Moncton.
The barrage left Axemen starting goalie Brandon Glover pulled in favor of Evan Mosher, and left the Axemen looking dazed and confused. The Eagles took full advantage of the lack of Axemen discipline, scoring three times on the power play in the first.
For the first ten minutes of the second, the Blue Eagles played Acadia to perfection, not allowing Acadia to gain any momentum. Acadia scored on their own power play to trim the lead to 4-2. Then, less than two minutes later, the lead was further reduced to 4-3 with a great second effort by Liam Heelis. Read More>
