www.oakvillebeaver.com The Oakville Beaver, Wednesday February 14, 2007 - 33 New players fitting in Continued from page 31 also contributed heavily, scoring a picturesque goal Monday and earning six points in the series thus far. The Blades had struggled for a couple weeks after making several moves at the trade deadline, but appear to be back in fine form. "It is tough when you play with a group of guys (most of the season) and then have these new guys, who had the potential to be amazing," DeFazio said. "It always takes a few games to jell a team together, but the guys have come in the room and it feels like they have been here all year." The Chargers, meanwhile, hung tough with Oakville in the first two games (the Blades won Friday's opener 6-3) but seemed demoralized during Monday's rout. A spirited bout between Mississauga defenceman Andrew Oreskovich and Blades forward Lindsay Sparks was one of the Chargers' few signs of resistance. "They were a tough team to play against (in Games 1 and 2) and you have to credit them for that. They're playing really hard," Elliott said. "I've been in their position and I know it's hard to play in a 7-1 or 6-1 game. It's hard to keep your composure and your head high." Trevor Eckenswiller and Clarke had the Blades' other goals Monday, with Vince Scott picking up three assists. Daniel Calitri and Cody Goloubef each had a pair of helpers, and Matt Hoyle earned his second win of the series. Saturday, Clarke and Calitri each scored twice for Oakville, with Borges, Scott and Vanderveeken rounding out the scoring. Kori Coelho recorded the victory in goal. Nick McParland had two goals and Langeraap earned four assists in the series opener. Bryan Peters, Paul Conter, Elliott and Calitri netted singles while Vanderveeken had three helpers. If the Blades do not conclude the series Friday, Game 5 would be played Saturday at Dominion Twin Rinks, also a 7:30 p.m. start. In other West Conference first-round play, the Hamilton Red Wings own a 3-0 series advantage against the Streetsville Derbys and the Georgetown Raiders are up 2-0 on the Burlington Cougars. The Milton IceHawks, eighth seed in the West, upset the Brampton Capitals 8-6 Monday and were tied 1-1 in their series entering last night's action in Milton.
