The Coquitlam Express were up two games in their second-round BCHL series after the weekend but dropped Game 3 at home against the Langley Rivermen on Monday.
games in Langley continued from page 23
Defiel, who has been outstanding since the playoffs began, stopped only 19 of the 24 shots he faced in the game. Coquitlam was a completely different team in the series opener on Friday, when they defeated the Rivermen 4-2 at the Langley Events Centre. Canon Pieper drew first blood for the Express in the first period, assisted by Brendan Lamont and the game stayed frozen at one goal each until the final frame. That’s when the team’s post-season scoring leader Ryan Rosenthal broke the logjam with a goal 3:32 into the third, followed up with an unassisted
marker by Cody Boyd. Boyd, w h o added an insurance marker in RosEnTHaL the closing minutes of the game, was named first star. Coquitlam kept up the effort in Game 2 of the series on Saturday night. Zach Hodder scored the opener on the power play 2:39 into the first assisted by Rosenthal, who scored with one minute left in the frame to make it 2-0 for the Express. Neither team scored in the second and Langley’s lone goal in the third off the stick of Kilistoff was not enough to ignite their offence. When the clock
finally ran down the score was 2-1. Coquitlam net minder Defiel had his strongest start of the series Saturday, stopping 36 of the 37 shots he faced. He was integral to holding Langley off the board for most of the game and was named second star of the match for his play. The series continues in Langley on Thursday at 7:15 p.m. and if more games are necessary will return to Coquitlam on Friday at 7 p.m. If the series stretches to seven games, the final match will be held at the Langley Events Centre on Saturday.
