Florida Seals News Release


[HUNTSVILLE, Ala.]-The Florida Seals busted out of the gates building a five goal lead after two periods of play. The Huntsville Havoc stormed out of the third period gate scoring four unanswered goals, before the Seals held on for the 7-4 victory.

Rob Sich and Justin Keller each scored two goals and two assists to propel the Seals to their thirteenth road win of the year. Steve Zoryk added two goals pushing him to the team lead in that category with 33.

Things were looking smooth for the Seals as they dominated all areas of the ice through the first two periods building a 5-0 lead. Florida even chased the league's top goalie, Matt Carmichael to the bench, after the fifth goal was scored.

Things changed as soon as the puck dropped in the third period. The Havoc scored four goals in the first 10:09 of the final frame to put a scare in the Seals. Florida quickly regrouped when Justin Keller lit the lamp at 12:32 giving the Seals the breathing room they needed.

The third period also gave the fans a delight as Ryan Rivard and Jason deGuehery dropped the gloves twice. Rivard took both fights much to the chagrin of the Huntsville fans.

The Seals will return to home ice Tuesday, Mar. 14 when the Fayetteville FireAntz crawl into the Silver Spurs Arena. Get your "Two For Tuesday" tickets by calling the Seals office.
