The Westman Wildcats hosted the Eastman Selects in the 2nd game of their weekend series this afternoon in Hartney.  The two teams came out of the gate with tremendous pace and they both pushed to score the opening goal.  The Wildcats would lose a little momentum as they took 3 minor penalties which resulted in them playing on their heels a bit as they struggled to regain their composure.  The period would end 0-0.  The Wildcats outshot Eastman 6-4.

In the 2nd period, the Wildcats would again get into penalty trouble, allowing the Selects to take over the game territorially.  Eastman would get on the board at the 10:36 mark of the period to make it 1-0.  They would stretch the lead the 2-0 with 4:15 remaining in the period on the powerplay.  The period would end 2-0 for Eastman.  The Wildcats took 4 of 6 minor penalties. Eastman outshot the Wildcats 10-8 in the period.

The Wildcats came out in the 3rd period having to kill another minor penalty.  They finally got on the board at the 14:57 mark as Aly O'Hara scored off a goal mouth scramble on the powerplay. Cammy Clyne picked up the lone assist.  The Selects would respond with a goal of their own 26 seconds later to restore the 2 goal lead. A goaltender change by the Wildcats sparked some increased desperation as they continued to fight to generate chances.  They were finally rewarded with 5:51 remaining as a Tori Williams shot found its way into the net.  Paige Hubbard would tie it up at the 2:32 mark with a great individual effort on a wraparound to make it 3-3.  The Wildcats picked up a late penalty to make things interesting but some good penalty kill work killed off the remaining time in regulation.  Each team picked up a minor penalty in the 3rd period and the Wildcats outshot Eastman 12-4.  

Cue overtime.  The Wildcats would have to kill off the remainder of the penalty but actually controlled the play on the 4 on 3 advantage.  At the end of the kill, Tori Williams would pick up the puck in the neutral zone and turn up ice, split the Eastman defense and bury a shot to the top blocker side to lead the Wildcats to the comeback victory.  

The Wildcats head on the road next weekend with games against Pembina Valley and Interlake.  

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. 

After a full day of hosting over 50 young female players from the Westman area the Westman Wildcats hosted the Eastman Selects Saturday night in Hartney and skated to a 4-2 victory.  The Wildcats also wore their Pink Cancer Care Jerseys tonight to support Cancer Care month.  

Aly O'Hara got the Wildcats on the board at the 13:33 mark of the opening period as she buried a short from the right dot.  Tori Williams and Cammy Clyne picked up the assists on the play.  The Selects would tie it up on the powerplay just under 3 minutes later with a shot from the point.  The Wildcats would regain the lead with 3:27 remaining when Gilly Gervin buried a rebound off a Kailey Thompson shot.  Jori Hansen-Young picked up the other assist on the play.  The period ended 2-1.  Shots on goal were 7-4 in favor of Westman.  Each team picked up a minor penalty.

The Wildcats would come out hard to begin the 2nd period as they seemed to find their legs. Eastman pushed back, however, and hemmed the Wildcats in for a couple of long stretches.  It was the Wildcats though who would get the next goal on the powerplay with 6:02 remaining as Tori Williams drove into the crease, got a shot on net and collected her own rebound to make it 3-1.  Jessica Walker and Aly O'Hara picked up the assists on the play.  The period would end 3-1 for Westman.  Shots were 7-4 in favor of Eastman. Eastman picked up the lone penalty of the period.

The Wildcats came out with good energy and carried the play in 3rd period.  They would stretch the lead to 4-1 as Cammy Clyne buried a wrist shot high to the glove side.  Calista Green picked up the lone assist on the goal. Eastman would score a late goal with 1:05 remaining to make it 4-2 off a deflected shot from the point.  Shots on goal in the 3rd period were 10-7 in favor of Westman. The Wildcats took 2 of 3 minor penalties.
