2014 TPWHL Finals: Wolves are the Champions!

In game three of the championship series, the Wolves won 3 – 2 over the Bulldogs to clinch the 2014 championship in a thrilling final game!

In the first, the Bulldogs got off to a fast start 2:30 into the game with a goal from Donnelly, who was on the receiving end of a great pass from Jerry for the 1 – 0.

In the second, Saverio replied for the wolves at 6:28 to tie the game 1 – 1, who got a pass from Sharmin after winning the face-off.

In the third, Donnelly gave the Bulldogs their second lead of the game at 5:45 off the misplay from wolves goalie Torrance. However there was no quit in the wolves who tied the game 2 – 2 with five minutes left at 10:36. On the play Saverio tucked his shot behind the goalie for the goal, assisted by Sharmin. And with momentum on their side the wolves took their first lead of the game two minutes later at 12:00 on a goal from Sharmin , assisted by Saverio. It would eventually stand up as the game-winner giving the Wolves the 2014 MD Memorial Championship cup.

It was the closest championship series ever with both teams scoring eight goals each. The Bulldogs should be proud of themselves this season, battling back from Last place and into the playoffs. They were a tough team to play against this season, with some of the best team defense that I have ever seen and great goaltending from Eli.

It was truly a great TPWHL season with clutch goals, huge saves, close games and exciting playoff races. Come out and support our hockey league or even become a player in the 2014/15 season. For more info go to their website or Facebook page.
