STILL STRUGGLING
The Grandview Steelers played some of their better hockey this week but came away with few points to show for it.
The junior B Steelers gave up a late goal in a narrow 3-1 loss to runaway Shaw conference leading Richmond Sockeyes on Sunday.
On Wednesday, Grandview drew 3-3 with Brittain conference leader Aldergrove Kodiaks, behind a 46-save performance from goalie Tyler Read.
"We had two really good games, but had a few unfortunate bounces which you get when you're struggling," said Steelers assistant coach John McDade.
In Aldergrove, the Burnaby Winter Clubbased Steelers jumped out to a 2-0 first period lead on goals by Giancarlo Romano and Simon Horlick less than two minutes apart. Grange Gordon gave the visitors a 3-1 lead early in the middle period, but the Kodiaks tied the score early in the final frame. Both teams were scoreless in overtime.
