Markham Waxers Game Report

DEC. 3/2000 (Game 30)	P1	P2	P3	OT	FINAL
MARKHAM WAXERS	1	2	0	-	3
ST. MICHAELS BUZZERS	2	2	1	-	5

The Waxers visited St. Michael's College Arena on Sunday night in an effort to exorcise the demons that have seen them go winless in that venue for two seasons. Alas, the trend continued as a spirited and thorough effort by the Waxers resulted in a 5-3 loss at the hands of the Buzzers.

The Waxers played a strong game, peppering the Buzzers net with 45 shots but the St. Michael's goalie stoned Markham time and again.

The Waxers got on the board first when a well placed dump-in by Mike Harding eluded everyone and found its way to the stick of James Regan who deposited the puck in to the empty net just 1:46 in to the game. Steve Nobili also picked up an assist on the opening marker. The Buzzers would then come back to take a 3-1 lead, scoring twice before the period ended.

St. Mike's upped the lead to 3-1 with a goal in the first minute of the period on a 2-on-1 break. Markham closed the gap to 3-2 on a powerplay when Adam Doucette circled the offensive zone not once but twice before finding Kevin Tompkins all alone in the slot for a one-timer and the goal. St. Michaels regained their two goal lead with 5:33 left in the period before Markham again cut the lead to one with another powerplay goal. This time, Doucette fed Tompkins who saw a streaking Mark Mitchell in the middle of the box and passed to Mitchell who one-timed a slapper home at the 15:46 mark.

The third period was scoreless until St. Michaels iced the victory with an empty net goal with 35 seconds remaining in regulation time.

Later this week the Waxers will face the Newmarket Hurricanes (Friday in Markham) and the Pickering Panthers (Saturday in Pickering) in what promises to be a pair of exciting matches.
