Tigers-Warriors Battle To Tie
Forty minutes of play solved nothing as the Welland Telus Tigers and Stoney Creek Warriors skated to a 1-1 stalemate at Valley Park Arena on Saturday afternoon in major peewee A action.
Tyler Ray scored from Alexander McQuillan with 75 seconds remaining in the second period to put Welland ahead but Stoney Creek would answer with a Nathan Tarka powerplay marker with six-and-a-half minutes left in the third to earn the tie.
Welland spent twelve minutes overall in the sin bin compared to four minutes for the home squad, with eight minutes of the visitor's infractions occurring within the final thirteen minutes of play.
The Tigers are now 14-8-5 on the season with a single regular-season game remaining at home on Monday night against Glancaster. Puck drop is scheduled for 7:50pm in Welland's Youth Arena. The two previous meetings between the clubs this season saw Welland defeat the Bombers 3-1 in November and skate to a 1-1 tie with them in December.
