Markham Waxers Game Report


JAN. 29/2005 (Game 46)	P1	P2	P3	OT	FINAL
PICKERING PANTHERS	0	2	2	-	4
MARKHAM WAXERS	0	0	3	-	3

In what may turn out to be extremely bad timing, the Waxers lost for the first time this season to the host Pickering Panthers in what was their final meeting between the two teams embroiled in a heated battle for third place with North York. Unlike recent losses, the Waxers played fairly well in this game but came up against a hot goaltender who stopped 47 shots as Markham held a 50-35 advantage in shots.

After a scoreless first period in which the Waxers out shot the Panthers 13-8, the hosts would take a 2-0 lead to the third period as they would score twice in the last 5 minutes of the middle stanza in a period in which they out shot Markham by a 18-12 margin.

Pickering would then score on their opening shot of the third period to make it 3-0 with 17:44 left on the clock. The Waxers would stage a comeback during the third with a furious attack that saw them pepper the net with 25 shots. Taking adavantage of a 5-on-3 powerplay opportunity midway through the third, the Waxers scored twice in a 1:06 span to make it 3-2. James Gaulrapp set up both goals, the first with a cross ice feed to Brett Molnar and the second when he centered the puck to David Kostuch in the slot. Nathaniel Brooks and Joel Gaulrapp picked up the other assists on the goals. Pickering upped their lead to 4-2 with 7:25 left and then James Gaulrapp, taking a pass from brother Joel, ripped hoime his 22nd of the year to close the gap to 4-3. The Waxers however, could not get any closer and as a result, set up an enormous final week of the season as the standings (and subsequent first round playoff matchups) remain in question..
