Whalers Win 2-1 in Shootout!

Last Friday, the Plymouth Whalers (in white) defeated the Mississauga Steelheads (in blue) 2-1 in the shootout!





 

 

     The Mississauga Steelheads came into Compuware Arena last Friday night, and left with a 2-1 loss in the shootout!  The game was scoreless until about five minutes into the second period when #23 Dylan Smoskowitz scored to give the Steelheads the lead.  The score was 1-0 midway through the third period, and I remember thinking to myself that I have never seen an OHL (Ontario Hockey League) game end 1-0 before.  The Whalers tied the score with just under three minutes left in the game when #20 Josh Wesley scored his first career OHL goal.  Both teams were cautious in the scoreless overtime period, and the Whalers won it in the shootout behind goals by #27 Yannick Rathgeb, #11 Connor Chatham, and #9 Zach Lorentz.  Rathgeb was credited with the game winning goal. 
     The Whalers lost to the Sarnia Sting 4-2 on Saturday night at Compuware Arena, and are on the road tonight to battle the Saginaw Spirit at the Dow Event Center (puck drops at 7:11 p.m.).  The Whalers are currently in fourth place in the West Division with 19 points, and an overall record of 9 wins, 13 losses, and 1 shootout loss.  Click on the links below for more information about the Ontario Hockey League, the Plymouth Whalers, or upcoming events at Compuware Arena.  Click on past months to check out archived material regarding the Plymouth Whalers.  This is the third season in a row that the Plymouth Whalers have appeared on the Mitten State Sports Report.  You can always leave a comment, and you can email the Mitten State Sports Report directly at mittenstatesportsreport@rocketmail.com  Be sure to check out exclusive photos from last Fridays game between the Mississauga Steelheads and the Plymouth Whalers only on the Mitten State Sports Report!
