Midget B Girls, U18, 2011-2012 (Mt Brydges Minor Hockey)

February began with the International Silverstick tournament in Sarnia. Our first game was against Milverton. After a scoreless 1st we started the 2nd shorthanded. We killed off the penalty and began to generate momentum. Nearing the end of the period Nicole Westgate took a slapshot from the point and Melanie Poirier was there to bang in the rebound to put us up 1-0. We generated some chances in the 3rd but no more goals. Our 1-0 lead held up for the win and a good start to the tournament.

In December we played a couple of home and home series vs Petrolia and St Clair Shores. First we travelled to Petrolia with a short bench. We traded chances for the first 2 periods and ended the 2nd in a scoreless tie.

We kicked off November with a visit to Lambeth. Having some history with this team last year we really wanted to beat these girls. The 1st period had a good pace with Natalie Catlos being tested a couple of times and Kelcey Lucio coming up with a big play on D. We were still scoreless going into the 2nd but momentum started to swing our way as we generated more chances.

We were very happy to welcome back some familiar faces this year including Coach Mark. Wasting no time we played 3 exhibition games in September. Still a bit rusty in the first one we lost 2-1 to Petrolia. But we stormed back in the next two beating St. Thomas 2-1 and Seaforth 4-0.
