The Toronto Canada Moose visited Deseronto Friday night. The game was off to a slow start, until Deseronto’s Danny Smith was sent to the box for interference. This allowed Toronto to open up the scoring with a power play goal from Mike Perry. Andrew Bobas waited until Mike Perry was in the box, to tie up the game for Deseronto.  Kyle McCrae scored Deseronto’s second goal of the night just 2 minutes later. It was a dramatic end to the first period, which started with Brad Clark netting one with just three minutes to go, giving Deseronto hope for a 2 goal lead into the second, but Toronto forward Steve Rigutto put one up for the moose with just 18 seconds left on the clock. Deseronto headed into the second period up 3 -2.Deseronto got right to the chase in the second. Tyler Dever scored just two minutes into the period.  The Storm fought to hold their 2 goal lead but lost it half way through the period when Gianmarco Aeillo single handedly put one up for Toronto.  Brad Clark kept up the suspense when he scored his second of the night with 9 seconds left in the second period.
