The teams traded four-goal outbursts before the Greyhounds scored a pair of goals in the second half of the third period to pick up the win
A better start and rebounding well after having a four-goal lead erased helped the Greyhounds to a 6-4 Ontario Hockey League victory over the North Bay Battalion on Saturday night at the GFL Memorial Gardens.
Asked about North Bay battling back after falling behind, veteran forward Tyler Savard said the team is prepared for the potential of lulls in their game due to a young roster and the team was still confident after the lead was erased.“There was no panic ,” Savard also said. “Everyone stayed positive. There was no negativity. We just kept going, kept working. I felt like we were never out of it.”“It never felt like that on the bench,” Savard said.
The Greyhounds opened the scoring 3:19 in as Mark Duarte picked up his first goal as a Greyhounds, beating North Bay goaltender Charlie Robertson from just inside the blueline glove side on a shot that hit a stick on its way to the net. North Bay got on the board midway through the second period on the power play when Kyle Jackson took a pass in the slot from Ty Nelson and beat Charlie Schenkel glove side.With one second to go in the period Matvey Petrov cut the Sault lead to 4-3 when he took a cross-ice pass from Justin Ertel and beat Schenkel after initially not being able to get a shot off on the pass.
Gibson finished the night with a goal and two assists for the Greyhounds offensively. Duarte, Savard, Watson, and Kudryavtsev added one of each.“He gave us a chance to win again,” Dean said. “We felt bad because we thought he didn’t deserve to have a four-spot against him with how well he played.”
