Fantuzzi and the Dmen (Sammuels, Frost, Carroll, Travolta, Connor) earned a shutout in the second game. Peterson logged a hat trick in the game three win. Connor scored a short handed (3 on 5) goal to put the Storm out to Port in the final round robin game. The Kings secured the hardware in the championship game by killing off two 3 on 5's in the last few minutes!Check out the trophy at Skylands during your next trip to the rink!
