Mariners Can't Solve Perets in Saturday Night Loss
November 4, 2023 - ECHL (ECHL)
Maine Mariners News Release
NORFOLK, VA - Norfolk netminder Yaniv Perets stopped all 17 Maine Mariners shots that came his way on Saturday night, in a 5-0 final from the Norfolk Scope Arena. Brian Bowen scored a pair of goals for the Admirals, who have won the first two in the three-game weekend series.
The game got off to an inauspicious start for the Mariners when the first shot of the game was deflected into the net. Norfolk forward Mathieu Roy, who also scored the first goal on Friday night, tipped in Darick Louis-Jean's shot just 19 seconds in, making it 1-0 Admirals. Norfolk's Danny Katic was assessed a five minute major penalty for boarding, but it was the Admirals who capitalized with a shorthanded goal. Griffin Mendel and Thomas Caron drove in on Maine goaltender Brad Arvanitis and Mendal buried the rebound to double the Admirals lead at 5:11.
Another early period goal would greet the Mariners in the second period, as Brian Bowen got behind the defense and backhanded one beyond the reach of Arvanitis to stretch the Norfolk lead to 3-0. Bowen's goal was the only one of the middle frame, despite the Mariners producing several good scoring changes against Admirals goaltender Yaniv Perets.
Justin Robidas added a fourth goal at 7:12 of the third, capitalizing on a power play - the only man-advantage goal of the game, despite seven opportunities for each team. Bowen tipped home his second of the game at 18:24 of the third to bring the game to its 5-0 final.
Brad Arvanitis made 39 saves on 44 shots in his Mariners debut. A total of 85 penalty minutes were assessed in the game, 48 by the Mariners.
