www.insideHALTON.com | OAKVILLE BEAVER | Wednesday, February 19, 2014 | 12 Young Blades team benefitting from being in pressure situation, coach says continued from p.11 Oakville head coach Kevin Gomes also focused on the positives after Monday's game. "We got seven goals, so we're happy about that. We let up for five minutes in the third period," he said. "I think (the players') resiliency has been fantastic. Their work ethic and compete level have been absolutely great." Still, the Blades know they got away with one Monday. Oakville likely won't be able to survive any lapses Friday against a Buzzers team 13 points ahead of the Blades in the standings. St. Mike's should also be a motivated squad, needing a victory to secure home-ice advantage in the opening round. "I think they'll come hard at us and we need to bring everything we have," said Bzowey. "We know what is at stake, and everything is in our hands." Regardless of Friday's result, Gomes said the past week has been a tremendous learning experience for his team. "Everyone wants to make the playoffs but, in terms of pressure, we're a very young team. I believe we're the youngest or secondyoungest team in the league," Gomes said. "For our '97s and '96s, it's a learning experience in their first year. They'll just continue to get better and better." Mississauga will visit the 32-13-6 Wellington Dukes Friday before finishing the season at home to the 34-11-6 Toronto Lakeshore Patriots Saturday. The Toronto Jr. Canadiens, also two points ahead of Oakville, have completed their regular-season schedule. NOTES: Bzowey scored twice for the Blades Monday, with Daniel Jelic, Chris Polotek, Ryan Garvey, Greg Allen and affiliate player Will Rielly also finding the net. The Blades held leads of 4-1, 5-2 and 6-3 in the third period... Brendan McGlynn earned the victory against the Cougars, stopping 30 of 36 shots... The Blades also defeated the Lindsay Muskies 5-2 Saturday at Sixteen Mile, a day after falling 8-1 at home to the North York Rangers. Kris Bennett, Joe Seney, Matt Luff, Dalton Bew and Ross Sloan scored against the Muskies, while McGlynn made 35 saves and Greg Campbell contributed three assists. Garvey scored Oakville's only goal last Friday against North York as the Blades were outshot 42-24... Oakville is 1-2 against St. Michael's this season, losing the last meeting 4-1 Feb. 1 at Sixteen Mile... Mississauga lost 6-2 to Wellington in October and is 1-2 against Toronto Lakeshore this season... If Oakville, Toronto and Mississauga finish in a threeway tie, Oakville would be awarded seventh because it has more regulation and overtime wins than the other two teams. Toronto and Mississauga would play a one-game qualifier because OJHL tie-breaking rules do not apply if a playoff spot is at stake.
