MELROSE 5 TRITON 0
Melrose goaltender Kevin Marshall had an outstanding game shutting out Triton 5
– 0 at Kasabuski. Chris Sullivan started the scoring with an unassisted rush
down the left side early in the first period. Justin Laffey added a second goal
with his patented slap-shot after being assisted by a nifty pass from Jamie
Ferreira. Evan “Frenchie” Fay had a nice give and go with Justin Laffey to make
it 3-0 at the end of the first.
Triton fought back in the second pressing Melrose but the
“Stonewall Brigade” defense of Mat Centore, Conlin Healey, Zack Aslane and James
Eisenberg held Triton scoreless. Sean Kiernan battled through a scrum in front
of the net scoring with two Triton defensemen all over him with an assist from
Nick Kupchanis who cleared out the front of the net to make it 4-0 at the end of
the second. Justin Laffey scored again to make it 5-0 with a backhand assist and
pass from Shawn Stanton who blitzed his way down the ice to set up the goal. The
highlight of the game however was the awesome goaltending of Kevin “make’em
miss” Marshall who stopped 26 shots to record the shutout.
