Checkers'ed into submission for most of the afternoon, would a spirited comeback bring the Reign over the top?
Emerging from a dominant, but ultimately doomed effort last night, the Ontario Reign hoped for a more frutiful result this afternoon.
However, six minutes in, it was the Checkers who feasted. Jordan Samuels-Thomas, Andrew Crescenzi, Kevin Raine, and Jeff Schultz couldn't get off the ice after over a minute and a half on the PK, and Zach Boychuk squirted free to cash some change off the side.
