Dubie 'duped' Rampage and blocked all shots in the only overtime and shoot out. At 30 he seemed fit and daring, coming far out of the crease. He did allow a shot in the third period by Jay Henderson which tied the game 2-2 to force an overtime, followed by the shootout.
Noreau's shot on goal was deflected by Duncan Milroy (A) for 1-0 Aeros. Ryan Lannon and Shawn Weller fought and served 5 Penalty minutes. Rampage evened the score to 1-1 by Colin Long/Matt Watkins' gaol past Khudobin. But Gregg Johnson scored for Aeros to make it 2-1. Aeros. And Chad Rau finshed the Rampage off with the winning goal in the shoot out-Aeros 3-2.
The Rampage (esp. Fritz, the biggest skater on the ice) seem to have had it in for a former team member, Simon Ferguson. To my, admittedly inexperienced eyes, "Feisty" Ferguson appears ready to inherit the mantle of Love /Kassian?
And 'small Daoust', "Scrappper" Jean Michael (?) or shouldn't that be Jean Michel...reminded me a bit of the way Locke skated, he was fast, at times skating UNDER the arms of the opponents BUT took a completely uncalled for penalty in overtime. Despite this power play, Aeros defense held the Rampage to 2-2 which led into the shootout.
The guys skated fast and furious and showed some cohesion as a team.
The autograph session was 'manned': by #44 Justin Falk, #15 Brian Kaufman, #11 J.P.Testwuide, # 39 Brandon Buck and #29 Carson McMillan. #28 Brandon Rogers was all smiles as he chatted with adoring fans and signed as well. And I heard that Clayton Stoner had been slated to be there as well, but I neither saw at the table nor among the fans.
