Jefferson Hockey drops league game vs Paul Smith’s College 7-2

On Friday the cannoneers traveled up to Saranac lake for a big league game vs the Paul Smith's Bobcats. In the first period, the game was tightly contested both ways as both teams brought a physical defensive game. Both teams had multiple chances, but the goaltenders shut the door, taking the game scoreless into the first intermission.

In the second period, the Bobcats took over with a big home crowd on their side, score 5 goals in the first 15 minutes of the period to give them a 5-0 lead. With 3 minutes left in the second period the Cannoneers had 4 on 3 power play that Zach Blevins scored on assisted from Ryan Blevins to take the game 5-1 into the second intermission.

JCC came out hard in the third period and cut the lead to 3 5 minutes in on another power play goal from Zach Blevins with this one assisted by Casey Wilson and Cameron Winebar. Paul Smith's would finish with two of their own to end the game at a score of 7-2.

JCC now moves to 11-8 on the season and will most likely see another matchup with the Bobcats in the first round of the UNYCHL playoffs which once again will be hosted up in Saranac Lake. The Cannoneers look to bounce back this Sunday against the OCC Lazers at the Haldane Arena in Pulaski at 12 pm.
