Brantford Bulldogs News Release


HAMILTON, ONTARIO. The Bulldogs won a thriller Saturday night at FirstOntario Centre as they defeated the Kingston Frontenacs 4-3 in a shoot-out.

There was no scoring in the first period even though Hamilton out-shot the visitors 16-3 and dominated play. Kingston scored on a power-play at 3:57 of the second period to take a 1-0 lead after forty minutes.

The offenses kicked into high gear in the third. The Frontenacs took a 2-0 lead at 2:25 only to see the Bulldogs Will Bitten (3) and Brandon Saigeon (4) score sixteen seconds apart to tie the score 2-2 by the 3:24 mark. Kingston re-took the lead at 12:28 only to see Saigeon (5) score again to tie the game 3-3 and send it into overtime.

The Bulldogs were all over the Frontenacs in OT thanks to a power-play, but couldn't score despite out-shooting the opposition 8-2, meaning a shoot-out would be needed to decide a winner. It took five rounds, but Will Bitten and Matthew Strome scored for Hamilton while Kaden Fulcher stopped four of the five Kingston shooters.

With the win, the Bulldogs season record improves to 4-1-1-2 while Kinston is now 5-2-0-2.

Hamilton goes for the weekend sweep Sunday afternoon at 2 pm against the Battalion in North Bay.
