This puts far too much pressure on any player, regardless regardless of his ability or character. Travis Lauglin had the tough job of being that one player to represent Ontario Hydro, In spite of Travis' excellent effort and quick reflexes, Grafton got the goal that allowed them to continue in the tournament, while eliminating Ontario Hydro. In spite of their two loss record, the Hydro players should be congratulated. Parents and spectators were treated to some very exciting hockey that would rival many N.H.L. games.

However with only twenty-five seconds of play left, Kevin Martin picked up his second goal. Final score was 5-0.
