The 2010 Flames battled to a pair of victories over the weekend, but it wasn’t easy. On Saturday, the Flames had all they could handle in a 3-1 win against the Bandits. The game was a 2-1 affair until the Flames were able to bury an empty net goal in the final minute of the game.
Fresh, smooth ice; a clean slate for the Flames and Bandits.
I still love the opening face-off of hockey games.
Alex rushed in from the point and fired a shot that glanced wide off of the goalie.
Cam is wide open at his post but the puck just wouldn’t cooperate.
The Bandits had a breakaway bid and Travis made himself as big as he kid for a butterfly. Shoulder save.
Coach Scott explains, “On second thought, everyone look at Travis finish his sports drink commercial shoot.
I don’t know if anyone in the rink ever hears anyone yell, “Shoot the puck!!!!” Either way, Gavin fired this shot.
Brayden leads the rush with Jacob “Chevy” Casamaro riding shotgun.
The players line up, more or less, for a face-off.
I love when these kids come together. Coach Scott looks content with the talk. Meanwhile, Coach Nick, “What did he just tell them?”
Finley gets a shot away against the Bandits, at West Side Arena.
When “Panitz at the Disco” is around, anything is possible, even two pucks?
That’s it! Get in there and win that face-off.
Sean gets free and breaks in behind the defense to seal the deal.
The puck hits the twine and the Flames take a 3-1 lead.
Ya, we battled all game long, but now let’s come together and shake hands. “Good game!”
