Smolinsky opened the third period with a goal of his own, assisted by Zack Lovendale. Three minutes later, Lovendale scored a goal assisted by Snow.

Jackson St. Don added an insurance goal with less than a minute remainingafter some hard work in the corner by Noah Demoranville, who produced the opportunity.

Robert Ramsay contributed his usual back-checking effort, while the defense of Coleby Paling, Beth Davis, Matt Youlden, and Jared Westgate played their most physical game of the young season.

Steven Strachan produced a shutout performance in net for his half of the game, and Zachary Pateakos also played well in net.

On Sunday, a depleted roster led to the Bantams suffering as their first loss of the season.

]The North Devils got a goal in each period, as they blanked Gateway by a score of 3-0. The Gateway Bantam squad will hope to bounce back against the undefeated Canton next weekend.
