Markham Waxers Game Report

SEPT. 22/2001 (Game 5) P1 P2 P3 OT FINAL
THORNHILL RATTLERS 2 3 0 0 5
MARKHAM WAXERS 3 1 0 0 4
The Markham Waxers ventured in to Thornhill Saturday night to take on the defending OHA Champiuons Rattlers for the first time this season. The Waxers left some 3 hours later empty handed, on the wrong end of a 5-4 score.

The first period started promising enough as the Waxers jumped out to a 2-0 lead after less than 11 minutes. Michael Fish opened the scoring with his first Junior A goal at the 3:28 mark after being left alone in front and receiving a perfect pass from Mark Mitchell. Jesse Boucher upped the lead to 2-0 while on the power play, jamming home a rebound after Mark Menonte fed Derek Doucette for a blast from the point. Late in the first, the Rattlers got on the board halving the lead. The Waxers then ran in to penalty trouble and the Rattlers capitalized scoring on a 5-on-3 to tie the score with 20 seconds left on the clock. From the faceoff, Menonte and Boucher combined for some great forechecking, as Menonte stripped the puck off the Thornhill defense, and fed Boucher for a one-timer, and a 3-2 lead with 9 seconds left in the period.

The second period saw the Waxers regain their two goal lead, again on the power play. Boucher led a rush up the ice after Patrick Diotte head manned the puck, and after waiting for an eternity on a 2-on-1, slid the puck across the goal mouth to Ryan Steane for an easy tap-in goal. That was the last Waxer goal and they could not respond to the 3 unanswered Rattler goals in the final 10 minutes of the middle frame.

The Waxers and Rattlers will square off on Friday night back in Markham.
