Kingfishers edge NBCC Whalers 5-4 in Overtime in Game 1

Kingfishers Star Chris Hoffman

St. Andrews, NB - The Fundy Kingfishers grabbed game 1 of the best of three series versus the NBCC Whalers Monday night in FIHL action. Chris Hoffman scored the winner in overtime to pace the Kingfishers.


Kingfishers GM Matty Walsh was philosophical at the post game press conference. "Their goalie was spectacular. It reminded me of Taylor or Stevens when they put up the big curtain. We play Tuesday night and I'm hoping we can step it up a notch but I'll have to check the tank to see if there's any gas left in it. I put ten bucks in the tank just to get it topped up."
