Game Notes
- Former Nitro, Zach Morey, was dressed for the Leafs
- Tyson Brouwer started against Patrick Ostermann
- Nelson appeared to have a lot of AP's in the lineup (many players with full-face gear, and players without names on the jersey)
- 415 attended the game in Nelson
1st
The Dynamiter from Nelson, Hunt had a big first 10 minutes of the game, he was first on the score sheet with a penalty and then he opened the scoring on the powerplay. What became humorous as the game went on, was when Buhler made his first shift and the webcast crew from Nelson couldn't help but make references to Ferris Bueller. Kimberley held on their lead and outshot Nelson 9-5.
2nd
Nelson kept trying to attack, but the Dynamiters played with a lot of pressure in the neutral zone and at their own blue line, often creating turnovers. Busch gave the Dynamiters a two goal lead as he shot the puck in from the point past a blinded Leafs goalie. Continuing with his pattern from the first period, Hunt took a penalty, and then later returned to the ice to score, making it 3-0 Kimberley. The Nitro's led in shots 10-9.
3rd
This is really where Kimberley's ability to pressure the puck, with a fore-check, back-check, and neutral zone pressure helped them maintain possession and control. It took Nelson about five minutes to register their first shot of the period, and they only got one other this period. Wit scored his first as a Dynamiter, the Nitro's third PP goal of the game. Kimberley was on the PP for the last 5:40 of the game. Shots were 12-2 for Kimberley.
