Kingston comes back against the Whalers

The Kingston Frontenacs beat the Whalers 7-6 tonight.

The Whalers should have won this game! The Whalers outshot Kingston by a lot and were winning in the third period but then we gave up three easy goals on weak shots. Two of them were "five-hole". Every time there is five-hole goal against the Whalers I always say to my dad "Five-hole!". Matt is a good goalie but he needs to close up the five-hole. I know on my team when a five-hole goes in, I am usually thinking, "Man, did that really go in." But it is a team game and I make mistakes on defense too so you can't get too mad.

Matt Mistele had a hat trick tonight so I give him the Whaler Town player of the game for his three goals. I wish it could have been in a win. Matt Mistele is really nice. During autograph night a few weeks ago, he said to me "I like your hat! What team is that?" and I told him it was the Hartford Whalers.

Gianluca Curcuruto had a another good game and was really carrying the puck and making some scoring chances. He also is good at bringing the puck up the ice like Beau Schmitz used to do. My dad told me to watch his shot from the point because it is strong and it is. We are liking Gianluca.

I forgot to mention, Kingston had a guy who grabbed and threw a punch at Tom Wilson while he was sitting on the bench. He only got two minutes for fighting from the bench. He should have been kicked out the game. He's lucky.

Oh, well. I bet the Whalers are going to pick it up next week.

Go Whalers!
