The Vipers would score 3 first period goals and fight through some sloppy play to complete the sweep over the CT Bobcats with a 5-3 win. The line of Kyle Lynch (3-2-5) Kyle Hentosh (0-4-4) and Dante Maribito (1-2-3) would provide all the scoring in this one as they also netted 3 power play goals. Steven Tettoni, Chrsitian Kukas, Aaron Dollin and Dom Cappadona would provide some strong play on the blueline. Steven Tettoni would rifle a power play goal from the right faceoff circle to get the home team on the board. The Vipers would execute a perfect face off play for the 5th and final goal as Kyle Hentosh would win the draw to Lynchy who would roof a nice wrister from the top of the circle. Zach Laramie and Aaron McDonnell would again share the duties betwen the pipes.
With a complete shake-up of personell the 98 Vipers put forth a solid effort in a nice 5-1 win over a very strong CT Wolfpack team. Rejuvenated behind 3 brand new lines and 5 different goal scorers the Vipers came out with a bit of energy looking to back from their poor effort the day before. Alex Delvento got the home team on the board with a nice wrist shot through trafic for the 1-0 lead halfway through the first, Ross Wahl and Evan Daddario picked up the helpers.The Vipers would then go on to score 4 unanswered goals in the second to secure the win, the goals included 2 shorty's and one power play goal. JT Chamberlain would slam home a rebound goal after some nice forechecking by linemates Kyle Lynch (1-2-3) and Braden Haley. The next 2 goals would be of the shorthanded variety as Dante Maribito and Lynchy would exchange shorty's both executed with quickness and hard work, Dom Cappadona and Ryan COnnearney would pick up the helpers. Aaron Dollin on a screen shot from the point would round out the scoring in this one as again the Vipers would do a good job creating traffic in front of the cage. Alex Delvento, Ross Wahl and Aaron Dollin would chip in with fine efforts and Aaron McDonnell and Zach Laramie would stand tal between the pipes
With yet another disappointing effort turned in by the Vipers they have now dropped 3 out of their last 5 as an opportunistic NV Rats team capitalized for a 3-1 win over the home team. The Vipers held a decisive advantage in both shots on goal and territorial play but once again got away from the little things that they do that make them a successful team. The Vipers shook off a slow start in the first 5 minutes of the game and trailed 1-0, but started to wrestle control of the game away and began to apply heavy pressure, they were met with some fantastic Rat goaltending and thats the way it would go for the entire game. The Vipers cut the lead to 2-1 with 10 minutes left in the game but thats as close as they would get as 2 minutes later the Rats would drop in another soft goal. Ross Wahl continues to play some fine hockey for the Vipers.
