98E Vipers Win Top Gun Invitational Championship

Tuesday, January 17, 2012, 2:09PM

The 98's scored 23 goals for and did not give up a single goal in all 6 games, an absolutly amazing feat, in going 6-0 and winning the Championship with a 3-0 victory over the much improved Red Rangers. A power play strike from the point of Aaron Dollin's stick got the #1 seed off on the right foot and a 1-0 lead. Braden Haley sent Evan Daddario in alone and he beat the goalie for a 2-0 lead and Kyle Lynch and Kyle Hentsoh would hook up on a pretty 2 on 1 power play goal to put this one out of reach. The story of the tournament is obviously the commitment to 3 zone play for the entire weekend, and solid goaltending by Aaron McDonnell and Zach Laramie as the Vipers smothered teams with an impressive show of TEAM Defense, mostly giving up 8 shots or less in most of their games. In the last 15 games for the Vipers they have outscored their opponents 76-12, an astounding +64 goal differential. The Vipers return to NEHL action this weekend with games against the Pro Ambition and The Monarchs.
