Johnstown Tomahawks News Release
The Johnstown Tomahawks suffered a 5-2 loss to the Philadelphia Rebels Saturday afternoon as the Rebels swept the three-game series at Hollydell Ice Arena.
Ryan Johnson opened the scoring for Johnstown 8:24 into the first period with his 11th goal of the season. Johnson's goal was the only of the opening period as the two teams combined for seven penalties, playing a physical game yet again in their third game in as many days.
As time went on in a quiet second period, David Deputy tied the game at 1, scoring his 20th of the season with 7:25 remaining in the period. Johnstown's Ethan Perrault was sent to the box late, but the Tomahawks killed off the penalty to keep the game tied at one. Perrault's cross-checking call was the only penalty in the middle frame.
Philadelphia took the lead 4:43 into the third period with a goal from Dominic Foglia, followed nine minutes later by Owen Van Tassel's first NAHL goal to tie the game back up at 2. Just 1:12 later, Max Marquette regained the lead for the Rebels with his ninth of the season. The Rebels then extended their lead to two going up 4-2 as Oliver Band scored another goal 55 seconds later. Deputy netted his second of the game on an empty net to secure a 5-2 win for the Rebels Saturday afternoon.
The Tomahawks are back at 1ST SUMMIT ARENA next weekend to close out the regular season against the New Jersey Titans on Friday, April 14 and Saturday, April 15. Join us Saturday night for Guns and Hoses Night Presented by MMI Door. Tickets can be purchased online at ticketmaster.com.
