I watched tonight's game on Hockey TV. Great quality and camera work.
ReplyDeleteLooked like the Snakes were the better of the two teams, carried the edge in play at times, had more shots and the better of the scoring chances, only managed one goal, looked to tie the game in the 3rd before Jagger Williamson hit the crossbar moments later. I don't understand why Jordan Sandhu's goal was called off. Sandhu looked to tie the game on a wrap around. The goal light comes on and the referee behind the net, points at the net, calling a goal. Seconds later the officials gather for a short discussion before calling no goal. One referee and linesmen even go over and ask the goal judge, as he shakes his head at the officials no goal. Why did he put on the goal light then if the puck didn't cross the goal line? How does the referee behind the net, call a goal and then waive it off? This is total BS! The Vipers press for the game tying goal, but struggle in the final minutes to generate any kind of pressure-offence. Vernon played hard, had some good looks-chances, fell short.
The Spruce Kings have struggled in January have just two wins in six games, both wins coming over Vernon.
With the loss Vernon falls to 29-11-1-4 are two points up on 2nd place Penticton after the Vees 4-1 win over the visiting Merritt Centennials tonight.
The Vipers continue their road trip, Sunday afternoon in Coquitlam.
