Toledo Walleye News Release


(Toledo, OH) Matt Caito scored for the Walleye but Reading took the series with a 4-1 game seven at the Huntington Center Tuesday night. The Royals win the series four games to three.

Reading's Kevin Goumas, held without a goal in the series, started the scoring with a top shelf wrist shot at 8:06 of the first period. Toledo owned much of the play in the opening period holding a 14-6 shot advantage.

The second goal of the game for Goumas came at the 6:28 mark of the second to balloon the Reading lead to 3-0. For a second straight period Toledo out shot Reading 14-6.

Toledo chipped into the Royals lead when defenseman Matt Caito fired a snap shot past the right arm of goaltender Martin Ouellette just 1:27 into the third period. The first goal of the playoffs from Caito was the lone one to beat Ouellette on the night as he picked up 37 saves on Toledo's 38 shots. Kevin Goumas picked up the hat trick at 11:03 of the third to finish the scoring.

Walleye Notes: Goaltender Jeff Lerg stopped 16 of Reading's 20 shots and his record finished 1-3 in the playoffs. The team that scored first won all seven games in the series.
