42 - The Oakville Beaver, Wednesday October 24, 2007 www.oakvillebeaver.com Blades preparing Gagner pots first career NHL marker for division leaders Continued from page 41 56-21 on the night. Monardo's marker came 42 seconds into the game as Oakville quickly pounced on a Red Wings squad that had been embarrassed 7-1 in Burlington the previous day. Dan Hunt, Jeff Grenier, Jonathan Cristini, Nick McParland, Moodie and Welsh earned helpers in the win, the Blades' second in three days. Oakville downed the Milton IceHawks 4-1 Saturday at Joshua's Creek Arenas, with Monardo supplying two goals and an assist. Julian Cimadamore and Chris Corbeil also tallied Saturday. Eckenswiller had two assists, while Lindsay Sparks, Cimadamore and Welsh also helped set up goals. Greenham earned the win in net. Oakville has earned points in six straight games (4-0-2) and currently sits third in the West Conference standings with a 9-3-2 record, one point behind Hamilton. The Blades are scheduled to play only once in the next eight days, Friday against the division-leading Georgetown Raiders. Game time at Joshua's Creek Arenas is slated for 7:30 p.m. Former Oakville Trafalgar High School student Sam Gagner scored the first goal of his NHL career Saturday in Calgary. The 18-year-old centre took a pass from Edmonton Oilers teammate Shawn Horcoff and fired the puck past Flames netminder Miikka Kiprusoff, tying the game 1-1 in the first period. The Oilers, however, went on to lose the game, 4-1. "It's pretty exciting to score your first NHL goal but, at the same time, it would have been huge to come out with a win here. It takes a lot of the excitement out of it," Gagner told reporters after the game. "I'm just trying to continue playing my game and prove that I belong. This is where I want to be, so I'm just going to keep working hard and focusing and preparing for each game like it's my last. I'm doing some things well and adjusting to the pace, but it'd be nice to get a few more wins here." The Oilers carried a 3-5 record into last night's game against the Colorado Avalanche. Entering that contest, Gagner ranked second on the team in assists, with four. Jr. Ice earns weekend split, 2-2 on year The Oakville Jr. Ice is 2-2 in Provincial Women's Hockey League play this season, following a win and a loss last weekend. Oakville edged the London Devilettes Friday at Oakville Ice Sports, scoring two first-period goals and holding on for the win. Jacky Sollis, Sarah Finbow and Taylor Metcalfe tallied for the Ice, with assists going to Paige Goloubef, Elaine Dumas and Geneva Kliman. Stephanie Auger stopped 15 of 17 shots to earn the win in goal. The following day, Dumas was the lone Ice player to find the net in a 4-1 loss to the Toronto Aeros at Seneca College Arena. Ali Binnington made 22 saves in the loss. The Ice will return to action next weekend with a pair of home games at Ice Sports. Oakville will host Ottawa Friday (7:15 p.m. start) before welcoming Mississauga Saturday (1:15 p.m. faceoff).
