    The way these playoff games are set up it really appears 
as though Drew and his '05 Storm teammates have a great chance to secure their 
first victory of the year. This game did not get off to a great start, as the 
Suburban Stars managed to open up the scoring in the first period. Thankfully 
the Storm team "stormed" back to tie the game at a goal apiece minutes later. 
That score carried over all the way into the third period, despite some good 
scoring chances for each team. Things took a turn for the worse at the beginning 
of the third period, as the Stars scored two quick goals that almost took the 
wind out of the Storm team's sails. The first goal came when a defender fell 
down, leaving the attacking Star player in a one on one situation with the 
goalie, and he managed to take advantage of it and find the back of the net. The 
second goal of the period came on a play where our goalie thought that he had 
the puck covered, only to have the puck actually be sitting out in front of his 
glove. The referees saw it, and so did the Stars players who wound up knocking 
it into the net to provide a two goal cushion. The Storm players didn't give up, 
though, and they fought hard to get back in the game. They had some good 
chances, and managed to find the back of the net to make it a 3-2 game with time 
left to tie it up. Unfortunately they weren't able to complete the comeback, 
losing a close battle in heartbreaking fashion.
