Box Score
Guelph, Ont. – Saturday night at the Gryphon Centre the Gryphons scored seven goals in the first period and cruised to an 11-1 win over RMC. With the win, the Gryphons improve to 5-11-3 while RMC remains winless at 0-16-2.
Kyle Neuber (Sarnia, ON) started the onslaught for the Gryphons as he opened the scoring a minute and a half into the game. Just over a minute and a half after that, the Gryphons doubled their lead as
Leonard Fabbri (Mississauga, ON) found the back of the net. Neuber would score his second of the game to give Guelph a 3-0 lead just six and a half minutes in, and you had the feeling this one could get ugly for RMC. Coming off a two-point game the night before versus Carleton,
Seth Swenson (Parker, COL) would score for Guelph to make it 4-0.
Jordan Mock (Dartmouth, NS) decided he wanted in on the fun as he rang a shot off the cross bar and in for his fifth goal of the season. 30 seconds later,
Trevor Morbeck (Jackson, WIS) added his own for a 6-0 score. Before the end of the opening period, the Gyrphons would make it 7 as
Ryan Strand (Invermere, BC) scored to put the Gryphons up a touchdown heading to the second.
The second period got underway and this time it took Guelph just over 4 minutes to score as Fabbri gets his second of the night from a nice behind-the-net feed from
Teal Burns (Victoria, BC) making the game 8-0. Despite the lopsided score, RMC's starting goalie Evan Deviller (Sackville, NB) was doing his best, making one great save after another. But he could only do so much.
In the third period, Robert De Fulvis (Toronto, ON) scored his first of the night on a beautiful pass from Fabbri. Guelph would add two more as
Nicklas Huard (North Bay, ON) and
Jordan Mock would cap off a huge night for the Gryphon offense as they exploded for a season-high 11 goals. The RMC Paladins would spoil the shutout bid by scoring on the power play in the third period to make the final score 11-1.
Fabbri finished with a five point night (two goals, three assists),
Robert De Fulviis had a three point night (one goal, two assists) and both
Kyle Neuber and
Jordan Mock netted a pair of goals.
