Midget LL2, U18, 2012-2013 (Dorchester Minor Hockey Association)

Dorchester tied their series with Strathroy Red at 2 games a piece with a 3-1 win in Strathroy this afternoon. The first goal came with 7 minutes to go in the first when Carter Scott won a faceoff in the Dorchester zone and tipped the puck to Brandon Fisher who then rushed the puck all the way to the Strathroy zone and fired a shot the Strathroy goalie got a piece of but not enough to stop it. The second goal came a few minutes later when Scott again won a draw in the strathroy zone this time. He got the puck to Chris Gubbels who skated it deep in the Strathroy zone and fired a pass to Fisher in front of the net who scored on a nice wrist shot. Strathroy made it 2-1 on a power play goal with 5 minutes to go in the game. But then Fisher iced it with an empty net goal.

Dorchester pulled out a thrilling 5-4 come from behind victory in Thamesford Saturday night. The game started off rough as Thamesford scored three straight goals to lead 3-0 with 5 minutes to go in the 2nd period. At that point Alex Bankes through a big check and then came to the aid of Matt Kunder after he took a retalitory high hit from a Thamesford player. That seemed to fire up Dorchester as Josh Trodden and Brandon Fisher scored less than a minute apart before the end of the 2nd period. Thamesford got a power play goal early in the third but then Brandon scored again before the line of Matt Kunder, Jonathon Seliga and Josh Trodden scored two goals in one shift to put Dorchester up 5-4 with 2.5minutes left in the game. Dorchester held on for the victory. 

Josh Trodden flipped a rebound past the Aylmer goalie with Jonathon Oke and and MAtt Kunder drawing assists. The goal reduced the Aylmer lead to 3-1 at the time. Aylmer went on to score two more goals to win the game 5-1.
