Buzzers Blank Spirit 3-0 in Exhibition Match Up
Game Box Score

TORONTO (SMCS) - The St. Michael's Buzzers hosted the Stouffville Spirit at St. Michael's College School on Sunday afternoon.  This, the second meeting of these two teams in pre-season action, saw the Buzzers skating more of their returning players than in previous encounters.  Veterans seeing the ice for the first time in the pre-season were Aaron Dileo, Harry Taylor and Mike McKenzie. 

Showing post-season form tonight was Buzzers' starting goaltender, Kain Tisi, who kept the Spirit from making the scoreboard on 23 shots.  The large number of penalties kept Tisi busy between the pipes, but it would be the penalty killing unit that would notch two of the three goals on short handed efforts.  Both shorthanded goals were scored by Buzzers vet Mike Forgione on assists from John Scrymgeour and Andrew Rygiel.

The Buzzers continue with their training camp this week and face two more exhibition games.  The first game pits the Buzzers against the Brampton Capitals on Tuesday night in Brampton (7:30 PM) and then back at SMCS Arena on Friday night to host the St Thomas Stars (Western Jr B) at 7:30 PM.
