Ottawa, ON- In what was a light night for the league the Carleton Place Canadians squeaked out a tight win against a spirited Nepean Raiders team.
Carleton Place 3 Nepean 2
The hardest working person in the rink last night was Canadians goalie Ian Vandenburg who made 41 saves; 16 of them in the 3rd period to help earn the win. In total the Raiders outshot the Canadians 43-19 but could not find the tying goal. Luka Benoit (3rd of the season) opened the scoring before the Canadians scored three unanswered (Kay, Prud’homme & Froysland). Turcotte made it 3-2 mid way through the last stanza but that was as close as it got. Otsirakatste Brant made 16 saves in the loss.
NEXT UP: Carleton Place return home for a Sunday afternoon game against Renfrew while Nepean play Hawkesbury on Friday night.
