Welland Wins Eighth Straight, Blanks Warriors
Colby Franchetti and Tyler Laszlo set up each other forty-one seconds apart in the first period to lead the Welland 91.7 Giant FM/Country 89 Tigers past the Stoney Creek Warriors 2-0 in minor peewee A action in Welland on Wednesday night.
It was Welland's eighth straight victory, and improved the team's record to 16-0-2 in divisional play. Riley Caron was between the pipes for his second shutout of the regular season. In addition to Franchetti and Laszlo recording two-point nights, Jordan Wright collected another assist continuing his strong play of late.
Welland was 0-for-2 with the man-advantage while playing its first penalty-free game of the season.
The Tigers return to action on Saturday night in St. Catharines at Bill Burgoyne Arena with a 6:15pm puck-drop against the 10-4-3 Falcons.
