Blazers-Maple Leafs Game of the Week
There were only three games to pick from for the NSJHL Game of the Week but without a doubt, it had to be Monday night’s game in Sackville between the Valley Maple Leafs and the Sackville Blazers. The Maple Leafs for the umpteenth time gave up an exceptionally late third period goal to fall to the Sackville Blazers 4-3. It was Stephen Purdy’s goal with only 36 seconds remaining in regulation which gave the Blazers their win. The teams battled hard all game with the score being tied 1-1 after the opening period and Sackville leading 2-1 after forty minutes. It went back and forth in the third period until Purdy’s game winner in the final minute.
