3. Hounds
vs.
2013 Results: The Hounds swept the series 2-0.
All-Time Series: The Lizards lead the series 3-2.
Last Meeting: These teams first met in New York during Week 8, when the Lizards came away with a 14-12 victory.
The teams traded runs to open the game, before Matt Danowski tallied a highlight-reel worthy behind-the-back
goal to give the Hounds a 7-6 advantage going into the break. But a 2-point goal from Max Seibald in third quarter
(his second of the night) turned out to be a momentum changer in the game, and the Lizards went into the final 15
minutes with a one-goal advantage. They then proceeded to score four straight goals to open the fourth quarter
and build a 14-9 lead with 6:37 remaining in the game. The Hounds wouldn’t go down without a fight, though,
tallying the game’s final three goals to account for the 14-12 final. The Lizards’ two 2-point goals proved to be the
biggest difference makers, as Adam Ghitelman finished the night with 13 saves on 25 shots, while Drew Adams
totaled 15 saves on 27 shots. Faceoffs also went slightly in favor of the Lizards (15-28), as did groundballs (26 to
22). Both teams were unsuccessful on their power-play opportunities.
HOUNDS
After going toe-to-toe with the first-place Rattlers for
45 minutes last week, the Hounds ran out of gas in
the fourth quarter and saw their playoff hopes
dashed with a 13-9 loss. It marked the team’s third-
straight loss, the longest streak this season. The
Rattlers opened with a 4-3 lead after one quarter, but
the Hounds came back to tie the game 6-6 at the half,
thanks to two goals each from Mike Sawyer and Jake
Tripucka. The teams traded four sets of goals
between the third and early fourth quarter, leaving
the Rattlers with just a 10-9 advantage and over 12
minutes to play. But John Galloway made four fourth-
quarter saves (he finished with 10 saves on 19 shots)
as the offense rattled off another three goals –
including two from veteran Kevin Leveille – to
account for the 13-9 final.
Players To Watch
John Haus (M) – He does whatever needs to be done
to help the team, whether scoring or grinding out
groundballs.
Pat Laconi (M) – The rookie doesn’t always show up
on the stat sheet but makes his presence felt when he
is on the field.
Matt Danowski (A) – The team feeds off his energy
and the offense is at its best when Dino is hot.
LIZARDS
Despite a one-goal loss to the Bayhawks last week,
the Lizards still punched their ticket to the MLL
postseason thanks to losses by the Hounds, Outlaws
and Cannons. Behind two goals from Ned Crotty, the
Lizards carried a 6-3 lead on the Bayhawks at
halftime. Both teams came out shooting in the third,
tallying five goals apiece – including the third of the
night from Crotty – to keep the Lizards in front by
three heading into the final quarter. But the
Bayhawks stole all momentum, holding the Lizards
scoreless for the entire quarter while tallying three
goals, including a crucial, game-winning 2-pointer
from Jesse Bernhardt. Bayhawks goalie Tyler Fiorito
finished with 15 saves (two in the fourth quarter) on
26 shots, while the Lizards’ Drew Adams registered 14
saves on 25 shots. The game marked the Lizards’ first
home loss this season.
Players To Watch
Rob Pannell (A) – Leads the Lizards with 28 goals, six
of which were scored against the Hounds in Week 8.
Greg Gurenlian (FO) – He has won a league-high
60.2% of faceoffs.
Max Seibald (M) – His only two 2-point goals this
season were tallied against the Hounds in Week 8.
