TPWHL Playoffs semifinal: Bulldogs upset Kings in game 1

In Game 1 of the semifinals, the #4 Bulldogs upset the #1 Kings in a close 2 – 1 win for the 1 – 0 series lead.

In the first, with the Bulldogs Jerry in the penalty box for boarding, the Kings opened the scoring on the power play with Kirk's first goal of the playoffs assisted by Bill at 14:35 for the 1 – 0 lead.

In the second, Jerry replied for the Bulldogs on a shot that eluded Kings goaltender Leo to tie the game at 1, assisted by Meghan at 14:35.

In the third, with a mad scramble in front of the Kings net Jerry was able to get to the loose puck and score to give the Bulldogs their first lead of the game at 6:55. The goal was assisted by Meghan and Lorne. The Kings tried their hardest to tie the game, but the Bulldogs defensive game and great goaltending from Eli shut them down. Otherwise it was a close and intense playoff game for both teams.

Game 2 goes this Saturday, April 5 at 2 PM as the Kings look to tie the series and force a final game 3.
