Saturday brought on a tough back and forth game against Alexandria. It was 52:51 of pure adrenaline and back to back constant action. Johnson recorded an unassisted hat trick and another goal assisted by Christenson. Though the Otters took an overtime loss of 4-5 this was a game that had the fans, cheering and pacing! Breck Nelson had many incredible saves in the net and constant action that kept everyone on their feet.

Sunday the Otters took on notoriously physical rivals in Northern Lakes, fighting for the rights to the 3rd place trophy. Johnson scored an unbelievable and unassisted goal within seconds of the first face off. The rest of the first period remained scoreless for the Otters as Northern Lakes were swarming like flies. Second period Johnson was back at it with another unassisted goal. Shol snuck one past the Lightning goalie with an assist from Johnson. Third period the Otters kept them rolling, Johnson again with an unassisted goal. The tiny but mighty Lee knocked one in with assists being recorded for Beck Harris and Christenson. Liam Brimhall sent one sailing in the final seconds to get an empty net goal.

This group of Otters has only four players remaining at the Squirt level next season and the rest moving to PeeWees, their growth and connection that has formed on and off the ice will be fun to watch in the years to come. It's about a team, working as a unit and positive vibes that set them up for success. We would like to again thank the Squirt A team sponsor, Quality Circuits for their support throughout this season and all they do for the community.
