Minor Midget, 2006-07 (Huron Perth Lakers)

And thus concluded the 2006-2007 season for the Huron-Perth Lakers.  If ever there was such a thing as a "good loss", Saturday night was it.  The boys put forth a valiant effort and never gave up, but just couldn't finish offensively and fell by a score of 2-0.  The win for Sun County gives them the series sweep and the alliance playoff championship crown.  Congratulations to both teams for a hard-fought and exciting series.

Things didn't go as planned for the minor midgets this past weekend, dropping the first two games on the road in the best-of-five league finals.  In the series opener on Saturday afternoon, the boys just couldn't get anything going en route to an 8-1 defeat.  Five of the Panthers' goals came in the final frame.  Sunday was an entirely different team as the Lakers actually controlled a majority of the game, but just couldn't capitalize on their offensive chances and came up short, losing 3-2.  The Lakers will get the next two games at home next weekend at the Goderich MRC, with game three set ...
