Trying to return to playing sound Viper hockey the 98s took a small step toward that goal while grinding out a 2-1 win over Pro Ambitions. The Vipers special teams killed off a 6 on 4 in the last minute of the game which was backboned by goalie Zach Laramie who was solid between the pipes, especially in the third period coming up with about 3 point blank saves. The Pro Ambitions goaltender was much busier down the other end as if not for him and a couple of posts this one could have been broken open. Pro Ambitions took an early lead on the power play just 2:30 into the game, but it only took the Vipers 26 seconds to answer as Brendan White walked in on the right side firing a wrister that found the back of the night, Dom Cappadona and JT Chamberlain picked up assists on the play. The game would stay that way until 5 minutes left in the game as Kyle Lynch pounced on a Steven Tettoni rebound and poked it in for the game winner. Patrick McCarthy and Ryan Connearney chipped in with fine games from the blue line
