Goals and assists
Coventry Blaze came from three goals down to beat Manchester Storm 4-3 at the Storm Shelter on Saturday night.
A
Samuel Tremblay one-timer off a Tyler Hinam pass opened the scoring
with 14:54 played, and less than three minutes later Cam Critchlow took
the puck from behind the net and wrapped-around on Nolan Kent to double
the home side's lead.
Tremblay beat Kent off a Johnny Corneil drop
pass 8:27 into period two to put the hosts 3-0 ahead. However, it was
to be all square before the end of the middle period.
Aidan
Spellacy skated from his own blue line before backhanded a bobbling puck
past Evan Weninger to pull one back for the Blaze at 33:47, before
Tyler Kirkup stole the puck and beat Weninger high at 37:59 to make it a
one-goal game. Kim Tallberg completed the comeback with 77 seconds left
in the second period.
The game was one off a Blake Thompson shot
form the point with 4:35 left in the final period, that may have been
tipped in by Spellacy at the top of the crease.
Coventry moved two points clear in fifth with the win.
