The Jets (15-3-4) hosted the Avalanche (11-6-5) from the South Central loop to keep their game focus during their first round bye in league play-offs. The Jets will play the winner between the Cold Creek Comets and the Lindsay Lynx sometime after the Feb. 21 first round deadline. On Saturday, Bancroft jumped out to an early 1-0 lead on the first shift of the game. Kenndal Marsden surprised the Ancaster net-minder with a quick snap shot from the high slot that went off the blocker-side post. Midway through the first period Katie Funk gave Bancroft the dreaded 2-0 lead. Sydney Feir's pass sprung Funk on a neutral zone breakaway where she let go a bar down rocket wrister beating the Avalanche tender cleanly. The Avs continued to to pressure the Jets and netted their first goal late in the third period tucking home a rebound to get on the scoreboard. Ancaster tied the game at 2-2 on the first shift of the second period when they finished off a breakaway from a nice breakout pass to get their play started. The Jets went down 3-2 with less than a minute left in the second period when a defensive zone breakdown led to a third unanswered goal. Kenndal Marsden had a chance midway through the third period to tie the game up on a penalty shot after being tripped up on a breakaway but the Avs tender stopped the deke attempt. Try to stay game ready Jets and practice with focus as you await your second round league play-off competition. Continue to work on your neutral zone puck management, limit your defensive zone breakdowns and use your offensive zone puck possession to create and capitalize on your scoring chances ... a key component to steal the tight games. Your second half of the season will need your focused efforts to win the tough league play-off and provincial play-down challenges to extend your post season. Good luck the rest of the way Jets!
