Horde Blast Ice Sages

Saturday, April 6, New Hope (south rink) - Coming off a disappointing loss to the Maroons 3-2, the Horde came out lean and hungry to dominate the Ice Sages.  With only 12 skaters, the Horde jumped out to an early lead with Dan Bolles scoring at 16:11 and 14:39.  Jon Nygren followed a Bolles shot two minutes later and beat the Sages goalie for a 3-0 lead.  The first period scoring continued with the Horde putting in two more goals and ending the period up 5-1.   Bolles and Jeff Nelson were on fire all night, scoring four goals each and the Horde added a goal from Brian Hinderks with an assist to Tyler LaMont, which helped seal a 10-3 victory.  The Horde defense once again was strong giving up only 22 shots against once of the best offenses in D2.  The Horde return to Breck to face the Diablos on Thursday, March 11.  Hopefully, it’s just like old times.
