The Markham Waxers won for the second time in a row defeating the visiting Pickering Panthers by a 5-2 count. The Waxers rode the goaltending of Jeremy Wenzel who was sharp, especially late in the second period, stopping 51 shots.

The Waxers took control of the game right from the opening faceoff and had jumped out to a 4-1 lead before things got interesting as the Panthers played 5-on-3 for seven of the last eight minutes of the second stanza, racking up 23 shots in that time while being shut out by Wenzel. All told Wenzel faced 28 shots in that frame.

The first period was scoreless until almost the 19 minute mark when the Waxers struck on a powerplay. Greg Chambers scored his first of two on the night completing a nifty tic-tac-toe play from Alex Stoyan and David Colucci to finish the first twenty minutes 1-0 Markham.

The Waxers then came out flying in the second period and saw two goals in 58 seconds to extend the lead to 3-0. Joel Kitchen banged a Ryan Steane pass in to a wide open Panther cage for a 2-0 lead, Steane had picked up a nice drop pass from Robbie Burrows on a 3-on-2 break. Then, new acquisition Tom Kotsopoulos scored his first goal as a Waxer when he backhanded home a rebound for a powerplay goal at the 5:11 mark of the frame. Kevin Tompkins and Jim Ulcar picked up assists. Pickering scored to make it 3-1 before Chambers banged his second of the night on a wicked wrist shot from the high slot with assists to Jezzy Letros and Colucci.

The score remained 4-1 into the third before Kotsopoulos' second goal of the game on a wraparound from Tompkins and Steane made it 5-1. Pickering scored just over a minute later with 15:31 left on the clock to finish the scoring.
