St. George's School vs Edge School U15 Prep 02/25 | CSSHL Highlights
Published 2024-02-25
Edge School started this match with the early 1-0 lead thanks to a jam play in front from Nathan Cole. However, a 5-minute major for head contact assessed to Brock England swayed momentum in favour of St. George’s. The Vancouver-based academy failed to connect on the man advantage, but were able to test Carsten Leyerzapf (33/37) a fair bit. Come the second period, St. George’s found their groove as they exploded for three unanswered goals after Jayan Sinha (1G, 1A) sniped one in transition. St. George’s would have carried over a 3-1 lead into the third but a late tic-tac-toe play from Edge brought things to within one. Early in the third, Louis Oscar Holowaychuk tapped in a feed from Sinha to restore St. George’s two goal advantage. Everything was looking good for St. George’s until Edge unearthed a late push. Luke Jamieson made things a one goal game. Then only two minutes later, Joaquin Geras (1G, 2A) rifled home a wrister from the top of the slot, being Les Toth (37/41) and forcing overtime. Toth and Leyerzapf would each make their fair share of saves in the extra frame and would ultimately lead this game into a shootout. The first seven shooters in rotation were not able to beat those aforementioned goaltenders. It would come down to St. George’s Jack Poole who went on to beat Leyerzapf blocker side with a quick shot, ending Edge School’s comeback attempt and ending the Saints' regular season on a high note, snapping Edge’s 15-game win streak in the process.
