28th July 2024 – British Para Ice Hockey League: Mayhem 1 – Cardiff Huskies 2
The Mayhem sledge team put in an impressive performance against league leaders Cardiff Huskies before ultimately losing out 1-2 at Planet Ice Widnes on Sunday.
As the score suggests, this was a very close
game – with barely room for the metaphorical cigarette paper between the two
teams – and, as such, the result could have gone either way until the very last
seconds.
The Mayhem slightly edged the first period,
but it took until the 13th minute for the first goal –which fell to
Anthony Booth on a powerplay punishing Cardiff t-boning penalty.
The score remained 1-0 at the first period
break and it was still 1-0 heading into the last minute of the second period as
well. The Mayhem had successfully killed off a penalty of their own for
t-boning but then got caught out with a Cardiff strike just 26 seconds before the
buzzer to tie the game at 1-1.
A second goal for Cardiff three minutes into
the third period edged them into the lead for the first time and, try as they
might, the Mayhem were unable to muster any sort of reply.
