Sabres, Novice HL, 2013-2014 (Ancaster Minor Hockey)

Just as these two teams’ contest began in the first game of the year, the third meeting between the Sabres and the Leafs ended the regular season in style, bookending the year with victories for the Boys in Black.

This week the Boys in Black were all business as they took on the Ancaster Leafs. Coming off last week's disjointed contest against the Thrashers, the Sabres took the lessons learned in practice to heart and pulled together for their best team effort of the season, with heads-up play leading to goals from five different players.

In a back-and-forth battle that kept the crowd on its feet with Ooos,  Aaahs,  and even a Where Is Their Goalie Going?, the Ancaster Sabres narrowly squeaked by the Thrashers with a 5-4 on a late third period goal by center Zachary.

This week, the Boys in Black found themselves cast adrift in their own zone time and time again, as they struggled to keep their heads above water against a speedy young Ancaster Islanders team.

In another exciting and hard-fought matchup, this week the Ancaster Sabres took on the division-leading Red Wings in a battle for first place in the standings.  The game lived up to its billing as a clash of titans.  With fast skating, hard shooting and two goalies who came up with amazing saves time and time again, it was a thrilling show for fans of both teams.
