Squirrels 5, Laughing Skulls 2

The Screaming Squirrels won their eighth in a row Sunday with a  victory against the Laughing Skulls.

The Squirrels started strong with a goal only 15 seconds in, as Rob Myers collected a rebound off the back boards and the game was 1-0 in no time. But the Squirrels struggled the rest of the period, giving up two goals – including a power play goal – and found themselves feeling rusty after going nearly two weeks without a game.

Then Jon Danziger’s 5-on-3 power play goal in the second period, and Brent Machado’s go-ahead goal near the end of the period, put the Squirrels back in the driver’s seat going into the final period.

The game was still well within reach for the Skulls in the third period, and they had an opportunity with a 5-minute power play, but the Squirrels drew a minor penalty during it and killed the rest. With about five minutes left, Danziger scored again, as did Mark Tessar, to put Squirrels up 5-2.

Tessar and Machado also had two assists.
