Markham turned aside the Vipers 6-4 Monday night as the Waxers concluded their regular season schedule on the road.

The Waxers jumped out to an early 1-0 lead when Greg Chambers scored his 29th of the year, unassisted at the two minute mark of the opening period.

Six and a half minutes into the second Chambers scored his second of the night on the powerplay, his 30th of the season, from Jeremy Wenzel and Jim Ulcar. Wenzel's assist was his 8th of the season to set the all-time Markham Waxers record for most assists by a netminder. After Vaughan tied the game with a pair of goals Ulcar scored his first of the year from Albert Ferrante and Brent Pollock. An interesting sidenote to this one, all three players who figured in on the scoring play were defencemen.

The Waxers surged ahead 5-2 in the third period with goals by Kevin Tompkins, his 27th of the year, unassisted and Ulcar's second of the night. Ulcar's goal was assisted by Paul Robinson and Wenzel and came while the Waxers were shorthanded and would eventually be the game winner. In the dying seconds of the game Robinson scored an empty net goal, his 20th of the year from Chambers to conclude the scoring at 6-4.

Wenzel picked up the win in net making 30 saves to go along with his record breaking assist performance, it was also the second night this year he's had multiple assists. Also interesting this was the second straight game in which Wenzel picked up an assist on the game winning goal.

The Waxers now move into the Division quarter finals against the fifth-place North York Rangers. At publication time a playoff schedule was not available but it is certain that the Waxers first home game will be February 11, 2000 at 8:00pm at Centennial Arena.
