STEEEEEEEEEEELERS DROP 5th ON HALLOWEEEEEEEN NIGHT AND DROP TO EEEEEEEEEE DIVISION

A very gutsy effort against the division leading Toronto Stingers, provided the Steelers their first point of the season. Last night's game also saw the Steeler's scoreless streak end in the first period when Jeff Garner potted his first of the year from Carvahlo and Warkentin to give the Steelers a 1-0 lead. The Stingers came back quickly taking advantage of back to back to back penalties and by the end of the first it was 2-1 Stingers. In the 2nd period the Steelers had a number of changes including some from Darren Woon-Fat who nearly notched his first, but the score remained 2-1 going into the third. Larry Romanuik tied things up with his first of the season with a patented 'Rominuik Blast' from the point. Warkentin picked up his second assist of the night on Larry's tying goal. The Stingers once again took the lead off a 'what were you thinking-like' turnover in the Steelers end. With just under 3 minutes to go, the Steelers took a too many men on the ice penalty. Ordinarily, that would have sunk the Steelers, but the team pulled together to kill off the penalty and with under 30 seconds to go, the team pulled Durigon for the extra attacker and no more than 10 seconds after that Mike Didulka tied things up off a goal mouth scramble with Carvahlo (2nd assist of the night) and Jones assisting. The teams then exchanged a number of chances in the 3 on 3 overtime period which included a disallowed goal by the Stingers which the referee saw as being kicked in (pretty much the only call that went the Steelers way all night). With less than a minute to go in overtime, the Stingers won in on a shot to the upper blocker side…and with that the Steelers fell to E division.

Looks Like Marco's Going to the Penalty Box Yet Again !!!
