Game 7 . . . second period

SECOND PERIOD:
If Calgary G Martin Jones isn’t in Brandon’s heads by now, he never will be. . . . The goaltending display he put on in the first period is the talk of the crowd. . . . It’s F Brayden Schenn in from the blue line and G Martin Jones makes the save. . . . More Brandon pressure and there’s a long rebound that D Alexander Urbom is able to put behind Jones on the short side. . . . It’s 2-1 with 18 minutes to play and the crowd is back in it. . . . Schenn is having another good period. He has made a lot of plays and doesn’t have much to show for it. . . . Calgary F Del Cowan is off for hooking and Brandon gets its first PP opportunity. A chance to tie it. . . . They call it interference. . . . Calgary’s Misha Fisenko is going off for hooking. No, it’s Del Cowan and it’s for tripping. Brandon will be back on the PP after TV does some selling. . . . There’s the replay and it was Fisenko on the hook. The zebras missed that one. . . . Brandon has Glennie on one point on the PP. . . . What a disaster for Brandon? There is a Brandon player down in the Calgary zone, so they can’t go into the zone. Then they try a change and while they’re doing that Calgary F Tyler Fiddler gets loose on the right side and blows a shot past G Jacob DeSerres for a shorthanded goal. . . . That play about sums up Brandon’s Memorial Cup. . . . Brandon has a 25-17 edge in shots. . . . Brandon turns it over in the Calgary zone and the Hitmen give it right back. And there’s a shot from the right side that may have hit a stick and gone upstairs on Jones. Schenn was right in front, too. . . . It’s 3-2 with 8:02 left. . . . Give the goal to F Matt Calvert. . . . This has turned into a good, hard-hitting hockey game. . . . Best game of the tournament to date. . . . Brandon has a 27-18 edge in shots with 5:40 to play. . . . Urbom pinches at the Calgary line, goes in deep, and ends up hurting his right leg. He limps off. . . . The 50/50 pool is at $24,330. Yes, I’m in it. . . . Something happened in front of the Calgary bench and someone is going off. Brandon goes to the PP with 1:18 left. . . . It’s F Cody Sylvester going off for high-sticking. . . . Broda is on the PK and he’s been a threat tonight. Brandon better be aware of him. . . . D Travis Hamonic drives one through traffic and just inside his left post. Jones doesn’t even move. . . . There are 10.6 seconds lefts and it’s even at 3. . . . Brandon has a 34-19 edge in shots as the period ends and the crowd really is back in this one. . . . There’s a skirmish at the Calgary net as the period ends but nothing comes of it.
