A goal late in regulation time by rookie forward Carson Andrew was the difference
After starting the season with losses in their first three games of the Ontario Hockey League regular season, the Greyhounds have now won three of their past four games.“Given the way we started the year, obviously with some bad luck, some injury issues, and some youthful mistakes, for us to battle the way we have really since the Windsor loss…it’s a big morale booster,” Greyhounds coach John Dean said.
“That’s a tough goal against and given the dynamic of our season so far, it could have been a very easy decision for our guys to fold that tent or feel nervous or anxious that something wrong was going to happen,” Dean said.“It’s an unbelievable feeling,” Andrew said of getting the winner. “It’s probably the biggest goal I’ve scored in my life. It was a 2-on-1, I saw the shot and I took it.”
Saginaw’s Michael Misa stepped out from the left side and proceeded to beat Greyhounds starter Charlie Schenkel high short side above the netminders glove hand at 9:16 from the faceoff circle. The Spirit wasted little time tying the game at two as Calem Mangone stepped out from along the end boards and stuffed the puck past Schenkel just 1:03 later, setting the stage for the game winner by Andrew.
