First game of the season for
the Express proves to be a success. Goaltender Edgar Faria kept his team in the
game with an outstanding performance. After going down 2-0 through two periods
forward Barrin Soares broke the ice scoring the first goal of the third period
for Express sneaking one by just over the goalies left shoulder making it 2-1.
While defense played very well to add to the many great performances Sattelmair,
Valois, Jennings and Greene all had a solid game. However late in the third
period came what was the game tying goal. Set up by Toby Andrade who fed the
puck down low to Mike Roach who threaded a perfect pass through traffic to Dave
Farias for a one timer in the top left corner was a beauty making it 2-2. The
line of Desousa, L’Heureux and Benson put together a strong third period with
tremendous pressure down low and great back checking which could have been the
difference in the outcome.
