Thunder Back to Winning Ways

Harrington, DE –  The Delaware Thunder bounced back from a tough weekend with a strong win at home against the Port Huron Prowlers 5-2.

Both of the goalies stayed strong through almost the entire first perid before Delaware got on the board with a powerplay goal by Denis Gafarov with less than 1 second left until the horn.

The Thunder scored again 7 minutes into the second period to take a 2-0 lead. However, Port Huron was able to cut the lead to one just 36 seconds later on a goal by Dalton Jay. Delaware was able to push the lead back to 2 midway through the second period when Gafarov scored his second power play goal of the game. The two teams traded goals in the last 3 minutes of the second period to make the score 4-2 at the second break.

The third period had some strong goalie play on both sides, but the Thunder got a shorthanded goal by Rocco DiCostanzo to finish off the scoring in a 5-2 Delaware Thunder win.

The stars of the game were Denis Gafarov and Rocco DiCostanzo with 2 goals each and new goalie, Spencer Kozlowski, with a strong performance in net stopping 43 out of 45 shots in his first start.
