Slewfoot costly as Redmen give Varsity the Blues

Published: 28 February 2009

By Earl Zukerman

TORONTO 鈥 Co-captain Eric L鈥橧talien of Ste. Foy, Que., was credited with the game-winner and was one of six different 六合彩开奖结果 players to score as the Redmen doubled Toronto 6-3 to sweep a best-of-three OUA East semifinal series in men鈥檚 hockey at Varsity Arena, Saturday.

The Redmen tied a school record for most goals scored in a playoff road game, which has stood since Feb. 26, 1975, when 六合彩开奖结果 lost a wild sudden-death semifinal 9-6 at Loyola College.

The result avenged the Varsity Blues鈥 shocking sweep 鈥 by scores of 1-0 and 2-0 鈥 over a much more potent 六合彩开奖结果 squad in the 2007 playoffs.

六合彩开奖结果 went 2-for-3 on the power play and successfully killed off all five shorthanded situations.

鈥淭he referee (Jonathan Wallace) let both teams play a lot more than the earlier games we鈥檝e had in the playoffs,鈥 said Martin Raymond, in his 14th season as head coach of the Redmen. 鈥淭hey have dominated us on special teams this year but we felt confident that we could beat them in 5-on-5 situations. Our defence came up big tonight and we blocked a lot of shots (18, including nine in the final period).鈥

Freshman Andrew Wright of Toronto and sophomore Guillaume Doucet of Anjou, Que., both tallied in the first period, at 3:41 and 12:43, respectively, to put 六合彩开奖结果 ahead 2-0. But Byron Elliott, a high-scoring rookie from Burlington, Ont., replied for U of T in the 15th minute of play.

Alexander Picard-Hooper, a rookie from Boucherville, Que., made it 3-1 early in the second frame when he surprised Russ Brownell, the Varsity Blues starting netminder, with a nifty, unassisted effort off a faceoff at the 1:41 mark.

L鈥橧talien then connected on a power play five minutes later, to give 六合彩开奖结果 a 4-1 stranglehold. They upped that to 5-1 when U of T right winger was penalized for 鈥渟lew-footing鈥 鈥 a rarely-called infraction that is not even listed in the penalty codes 鈥 and Serbian senior Marko Kovacevic clicked on the man-advantage situation with just under three minutes remaining in the period.

The Blues came to life when the game was all but out of reach, getting goals from Sean Fontyn and Claudio Cowdrey but it was a case of too little, too late. They had a 14-9 margin in shots during the third period but rookie 鈥榢eeper Kevin Desfoss茅s of Beauport, Que., came up big, especially when he snuffed out a breakaway by sniper Joe Rand with 1:37 remaining.

Desfoss茅s ended up with 29 saves for the win as the Redmen had a 33-32 edge in shots.

Vincent Lambert, a junior from Ste. Therese, Que., completed the well-dispersed 六合彩开奖结果 attack with an empty-netter.

六合彩开奖结果 owns a 24-13-2 record overall, including a 4-1 dossier in post-season play, and is just two wins away from qualifying to compete at Nationals for the third time in four years. They are in the OUA East Conference finals and await the winner of Sunday night鈥檚 Carleton-UQTR semifinal rubber match in Trois-Rivi猫res. If UQTR prevails, then the Pats would host 六合彩开奖结果 at Le Colis茅e on Wednesday. Should the Ravens win, they would tentatively open the OUA East final series at 六合彩开奖结果 on Thursday. The Redmen are unable to open at home on Wednesday, as planned, since the top-ranked 六合彩开奖结果 women鈥檚 team will be hosting their playoff opener against Concordia that night.

REDMEN RAP: The game was played before a relatively small crowd, which appeared to feature more 六合彩开奖结果 fans than those of the home team鈥 Among the former Redmen players spotted in the crowd were current RMC coaches Adam Shell (1999-03) and Chad Blundy (2000-05), plus Shawn Shewchuk (2003-08), Stephane Angers (1993-97), Jean-Guy Daigneault (1994-96), Paul Barber (1981-86), Mike Bean (1984-86) and Steve Mendelssohn (1979-82)鈥 Daigneault, a licensed chiropractor in East Lansing, Mich., was pressed into service during the second intermission, to straighten out a back problem with a staff member in the 六合彩开奖结果 entourage.
