The Jr Sting PeeWee's have been busy with league games and as a result of going 3 wins against just one loss in their last 4 outings have managed to secure themselves at least second place in the Western Division of the Alliance Pavillion league standings.
Before the Christmas break the squad travelled to London and played a solid game that saw them unable to beat the Jr Knight goaltender on more than one occasion on route to a 3-1 loss. Kaden Fulcher had the start in net and made some excellent saves to keep things close. Jack Dunn on a deflection from Dawson Vautour was the only scoring for the Jr Sting.
To get the new year started the Lambton team headed to Essex to battle the Sun County Panthers and in a close checking, disciplined game came away with a well deserved 2-0 victory. Anthony Hurtubise recorded the shutout and was solid when called upon between the pipes. Scoring was provided by Brock Perry from Isaac McLean on a nice give-and-go effort and the victory was sealed with an open-net marker by Ryan Greenaway from Ethan Dupont in the final minute of the game.
The following night the Jr Sting hosted the CK Cyclones in the chilly confines of the RBC Centre Rink 2. In a more offensive dual the home team relied on a balanced scoring attack to come away with a 5-3 victory over their division rivals. Scoring for Lambton were Greenaway with 2 and singles to Dupont, Jarett Marks and Alec Dekoning. Assists went to Dupont with 2 and Greenaway, Marks, Dekoning, Franco Sproviero, Perry and Morgan Halcovitch all with singles. In a late game sword wielding contest the Lambton squad was caught off guard and acknowledged not being adequately prepared for the unannounced match.
Finally, for their third game in three nights, the team travelled through blizzard conditions to the frozen confines of the Glencoe arena to battle division leaders Elgin Middlesex Chiefs. After the teams feeling each other out in the first period the Jr Sting would flash the red light twice in each of the final periods to come away with a hard fought 4-2 victory and pull within a single point of first place in the Western Division. Scoring was provided by Dekoning, Brett Barnes, Marks and Halcovitch with single assists going to McLean and Greenaway and Dekoning adding a pair.
