The Windsor Spitfires beat the QMJHL champion Drummondville Voltigeurs last night 3-2 in overtime (the link goes to my live blog of the game). The OHL Champion Spitfires dropped their first two games of the Memorial Cup tournament (to Drummondville and Rimouski) before beating Western powerhouse Kelowna to force a tiebreaker on Thursday night vs. […] We’re underway. Go Spits Go!!! I believe! First period: Two early chances for Taylor Hall, then a frantic series in the Windsor zone at about the 3 minute mark in which Engelage is down and out and Adam Henrique collapses to the front of his goal (I think) and makes a terrific block […] Hipster Doofus Makes Good With Clutch Hattie First period: The best early scoring chance went to Rimouski; Spitfires goaltender Andrew Engelage stood tall on a long two on one and made an excellent save with his right arm on a quick wrist shot. There was another amusing moment when Windsor’s Adam Henrique finished his […] NB: I booted up the computer and sat transfixed during the first six minutes or so of this game.

The picture comes from ontariohockeyleague.com. GO SPITS GO!! GO SPITS GO!!! Game 5 is about to get underway – I can’t decide whether to listen live or to save the recording I’m making and listen later. I am very nervous, but excited. C’mon boys, git ‘er done! Third Period Action, and Some Guy's Head Windsor 4, Brampton 1. My Spitfires are one game closer to (and only one win away from) their second OHL Championship.
