91原创 91原创 wrapped up 2024 with a public skate for fans after their final home game of the year, then followed it up by going on the road for their very last outing, recording a 3-2 loss at home to Victoria, and a 4-3 win against Chilliwack.
Here's how the games went:
Following a two-week hiatus for the Christmas break, 91原创 and Victoria Grizzlies met for the second time this season on Saturday afternoon, Dec 28.
91原创 got the scoring going when Jackson Krill converted his own rebound in front for his fifth goal of the season with 8:24 gone in the first period on the power play.
2:24 later, Julian Cull tied the game for Victoria on a shot from the slot, with 9:12 to go in the first period, and that鈥檚 where it would stand until the second period.
91原创 had a pair of power play opportunities midway through the second, but the Grizzlies would kill it off, and would convert on a 5 on 3 opportunity tap in to make it 2-1 Victoria with 4:56 to go in the middle frame.
Ethan Merner scored his 12th of the season on a power play with 8:30 gone in the third period, and 91原创 would try to get themselves into the lead, but it was the Grizzlies who scored the winning goal with 1:38 to go.
Following the game, young fans put their skates on for some on-ice encounters with their favourite players, a 91原创 tradition.
Sunday, Dec. 29, 91原创 made a trip out to the Chilliwack Coliseum for the third time this season.
Chilliwack took the lead at 2:18 into the game, Dakota MacIntosh would fire a puck into the 91原创 net to give the Chiefs a 1-0 lead.
Two quick goals less than two minutes apart by the 91原创 made it 2-1, with Jackson Krill scoring his sixth of the season shorthanded on a feed from Zachary Benayon, then Henry Butte got his second of the season on a feed from Dalton MacGillivray behind the Chilliwack net.
A minute and a half later, the Chiefs tied it up.
Early in the second period, Benayon would score his second of the season to make it 3-2 for 91原创, followed by Ryan Schelling's 20th goal of the season.
Moments after the 4-2 91原创 goal, Chilliwack cut the lead to 4-3 on a one timer stemming from a power play opportunity, but that was as close they came.
Heading into 2025, 91原创 stand seventh in the 10-team BCHL Coastal Conference with a record of 14 wins and 17 losses this season, including four overtime losses and one shootout loss.
91原创 is at home for a pair next weekend, hosting the Chiefs on Friday, and Saturday the Surrey Eagles pay a visit.
