Oliver's Late PP Goal Helps Edge Port Huron 7-6

By DJ Palm

(Port Huron, MI) The Brewster Bulldogs were not going to let another one goal lead slip away in the final minutes and this time they seal the deal with a 7-6 victory, but the Prowlers didn't help themselves either.

Easton Oliver would score on a Brewster Power play with a 1:40 left to go in the third period. A roughing minor assessed to Justin Alonzo with two minutes and change left on the clock in the third.

A Brewster Power play which was already three for five on the night made it four for six. Easton Oliver would net the game winner with 1:40 left to go. On a night when the Prowlers put up six goals, they couldn't muster one more by James Robbins. Brewster's power play has scored at least one goal in the last 6 games and it's 10 for its last 32.

Chris Leveille's four goal night (six points) was spoiled in the losing effort. His hat-trick goal came midway through the second period to put the Prowlers up 4-2. Then three straight goals from David O'Conner, Jan Salak and Dustin Jesseau put Brewster back up top 5-4, late in the second period and it would stay that way, after two frames.

Third Period another Chris Leveille sighting 3:08 in the third period would tie the game back up at 5. Matt Beer picked up his third goal in two games 1:34 after the Leveille goal and the Prowlers were back on top 6-5. Sean Maaktak would then get the equalizer with just under ten minutes to go, and Easton Oliver's late power play goal would seal the deal Brewster picks up an unexpected four out of six points.
