Amazing Comeback Earns Point

Bomber magic was in full form last night. Down 4-1 to the Spartans the Bombers rallied to score 3 goals in the final minute and eleven seconds. The shootout was ultimately won by the Spartans but the Bombers still can be happy earning a point in a game that looked to be lost.

The three goal burst started when Neil Van der horn jumped into the play and kept the puck in the zone and eventually to left winger Tony D'anna who beat the Spartan keeper. When Eric Hoyer then scored at 28 seconds later off a pass from Gary Simpson the Bombers all of a sudden had legitimate life. And at 17 seconds Hoyer explained "I saw it pinball underneath their goalie and go in." referring to Bill Auld's tying goal with 17 seconds remaining.

"What a game" said Bomber Mike Gilbert Sr. What a game indeed.
