#9 F Kyler Magnus '96 made an nice inside out move on a one on one, but failed to score.
Between the pipes for Grey (Team Grant) was #34 Alex Kong '97 who flashed the leather on numerous occasions, while denying Adam Wowryk '96 on Gold (Team Holden) on a breakaway.
For Gold #9 F Chase Bell '97 scored by burying a rebound, #3 D Cody George Verge '97 was physical in front, knocking a man down - he also unleashed a hard low slapper from the point. #18 F Luc Soares '96 showed some great playmaking abilities with several long tape to tape passes on one shift. #8 F Keith Anderson '97 can sure move for a big man.

| #4 Joe Hicketts & #12 Adam Wowryk in Gold vs Grey warmup |
#4 D Joe Hicketts on Gold, the Royals first round pick in 2011 glided smoothly and picked his spots. He settled down a pass at the point and released a quick, hard slapper, but missed. Hicketts was admirable in his own end, boxing out forwards and making shifty turns to elude attackers. He also took down Grey #17 F Kelly Knudtson '96 in front his net.
