Playoffs: Squirrels 4, Wolfe Pack 3

Just like the last opponent, the Wolfe Pack had the Squirrels’ number all season, but the Squirrels won when it counted the most. The Squirrels advanced to the finals with a 4-3 win on Tuesday.

Jon Danziger scored twice in the first period, including a short handed tally, but two quick goals in the second tied it up for Wolfe Pack. Then the Squirrels found themselves with a 4:24 power play, two of which were 5-on-3, but couldn’t take advantage. But Danziger completed his hattrick shortly after to put the Squirrels back in the lead. Wolfe Pack tied it back up early in the second, then Mark Tessar scored the game-winning goal at 6:15, and the Squirrels held on for the rest of the game.

Sub goalie Shane Smith made 28 saves for the Squirrels, including several clutch ones down the stretch.

The championship game will be against the Bullets on Thursday at 8:30 p.m.
