Next semifinal game between neighbouring teams runs Sunday evening
A Nicholas Toffoli tally in the final minute of regulation lifted the Greater Sudbury Cubs to an eventual 5-3 come from behind victory over the Espanola Paper Kings Friday in Game 2 of their Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League West Divisional semifinal at T.M. Davies arena in Lively March 24.
It was the visiting Paper Kings who opened the scoring just over five minutes into the match-up when Lucas Signoretti snagged a loose puck off a faceoff and worked it in front to Devin Mauro, who lifted it by Cubs’ netminder Noah Metivier. The hosts answered with a man advantage marker a couple of shifts later with Oliver Smith ripping one short side into the top corner from the left of Paper Kings’ goalkeeper Jake Marois.
Coming right back, the hosts answered on the next shift when Kaden Laverdiere took a play wide, then fed a pass cross-ice that was steered in by Ben Harris to make it a one-goal game once more.
