Thunder Fans Given a Show!

Sunday, October 5th, 2008

Fans were delighted when the Brampton Canadette-Thunder came from behind the Mississauga Chiefs to take the home opener 2-1. We had a demonstration of why they are the two time league CHAMPIONS!! In front of a full crowd Head Coach Sean Healy enjoyed his first win as bench boss. "We've got work to do, but the effort was there", said Healy of his squad's performance Saturday night at Century Gardens.

The Chiefs Kristy Zamora (ex Thunder enforcer) led the scoring as she worked one past a stellar Laura Hosier. Zammy's goal only added fuel to the Thunder fire as they retaliated with two goals from Jayna Hefford, a veteran leader and assistant captain. Assists went to second year talent, Tiffany Hagge and a player who started her career in Brampton before enjoying much success at Mercyhurst, returning to the team with open arms, Ashley Pendalton.

Hosier was the story of the night, robbing the Chiefs on more than one occasion while the offense worked out some synergy issues which can be expected in the first game of the season. All in all the team looks promising and has depth. Fasten your seat belts folks, this is going to be a great ride!!!

A big thanks to the Timbits from the Canadettes who gave the folks a big smile as they hit the ice for the first intermission. Sunny scored her first goal with Lori Dupuis helping her into position! What a community we have behind this talented team.
