SMJHL GM Queen of Crows, Bringer of Freedom
Written Option 2: It was late in the match. 3rd period, at rivals Calgary, down three goals. Five minutes left. Alexa had done nothing all game, a few passes, maybe, at most. It seemed the sophomore slump would continue, and it was about to kill a Cinderella run of unlikely proportion to reach the playoffs. Four and a half minutes left, and the first line is sent back onto the ice as Calgary switches to their third. They're ready to ice the game, but Dash gets a takeaway, the first line forwards are already half way up the ice, a pass. It's Olafur, it's Gewndolyn, it's Alexa, it's a goal! Four minutes, fifteen seconds left, and now down two goals, it goes to the center ice. Calgary switches out, now they're going for the kill, first line against first line. The faceoff goes to Calgary, the puck goes to Sonja Solberg, but a bone crunching hit sends it free across the ice, grabbed by Jeyeff. Sent rocketing forward, Alexa is the only on the team fast enough to get there. Lucky her that Sonja is recovering from a hit, but there's her twin Froyo, except Alexa is the tiniest bit faster, a slapshot, a goal! Three and a half minutes left, two goals in a single minute and Calgary can feel a chill on their neck, now. The game continues, the puck back and forth, Calgary settling into their rhythm as the clock drains. Three minutes. Two minutes. One minute. Forty-five seconds... Olafur knicks the puck from Calgary, he shoots right away, deflected by Soderstrom. A mad dash for the puck... Alexa gets there first. She skates behind the net, a Michigan, a GOAL! Fifteen seconds left and the game is tied! The time runs out fast. We're heading to overtime with a four minute hat trick and ice in Edmonton's veins...
