Rough End to 2017

In an early morning match against Stoughton, the mighty Pee Wee B Avalanche offense was about as warm as the outside temperature.  The Avalanche got off to a slow start and goalie Xander Obert allowed 4 goals in the opening period.  The Avalanche never gave up, scoring 3 goals in the 2nd period themselves, two by Ethan Rosenstiel on assists from Jayden Downs and Gavin Roth, and Easton Dreyfus scored in the 2nd period as well on an assist from Rosenstiel.  Payton Hathaway scored just after the 2nd period buzzer went off, and it was ruled a "no goal".  Rosenstiel would score again in the third, completing his hat trick, on assists from Dreyfus and Hathaway.  Carson Kurschner added a late goal on a pass from Hathaway, but the Avalanche would come up short this morning, being edged out 7-5.  The Avalanche were out shot 21-43 in the game.  Obert had 36 saves in the loss.  Next up is a trip back up to frigid Dodgeville and an early morning start on New Years Eve, with the puck dropping at 9:15 AM.  Go Avalanche!
