The Pipers pulled their goalie in the last minute and Shane "Zabiggs"B. scored off a great feed from Wyatt K. to tie the game up with 18 seconds left. The game went to a shootout where Jacob G. stopped all 3 Selkirk shooters and "Zabiggs" B. scored the shootout winning goal. The Pipers lead the best of 3 series 1-0 and game 2 is set for Thursday, 4:00 at the Iceplex. The Hockey team is calling for all fans to pack the Iceplex and cheer on the team to victory!
