In a very entertaining hockey game the Vipers scored 2 unanswered goals in the third period and came back to beat the Assabet Valley Patriots 2-1. The fans got their money's worth in this one as both teams played to a quick pace up and down the ice. After a scoreless first period the Patriots struck first as a forward was allowed to walk out of the corner untouched and slide one past keeper Aaron McDonnell. The period would end with the Vipers trailing after 2 periods 1-0. The Vipers hard work would pay off as half way through the third period Dante Maribito would strike on the power play to tie the game at 1, Ryan Connearney and Kyle Hentosh would add the assists. Just 40 seconds later Chris Goggin would bury the game winner from the slot off a nice feed from JT Chamberlain, who had himself a nice weekend. Aaron McDonnell and Andrew Krajeski would do a fine job between the pipes for the Vipes. Once again the Vipers continue their solid play in their own end, Patrick McCarthy and Matt Tauro would chip in with a fine game on the blueline.
