Colston Allen scored a game-tying goal just seven seconds after U-32 took a third-period lead, and the score ignited a four-goal closing run for the Hurricanes in a 6-3 VPA Division II win over the Raiders at Wendell A. Barwood Arena. Allen and linemates Jacob Dwinnell and A.J. DeBois combined to score four goals and contribute three assists for Hartford, which nearly doubled its season goal total in the victory.
“It was a totally complete team that was on the ice today,” Hartford coach Todd Bebeau said. “(Allen, Dwinnell and DeBois) are all young, and they had a coming-out party today. They were phenomenal. They were so much fun to watch.”
The two squads played to a 1-1 tie after one period and a 2-2 draw after two. U-32 took a lead with 11:11 left in regulation only to have Allen (two goals, one assist) strike right back with an unassisted goal seven ticks later.
It was all Hartford (2-6-1) after that. Dwinnell converted passes from Kaj Boeri and Allen with 8:39 left for the eventual game-winning goal. DeBois (one goal, two assists) made it 5-3 on a Jacob Derosier pass with 2:34 left, and Kyle Hamilton took an Aidan Boonyaharn feed and desposited the puck into an empty net with eight seconds left.
Hamilton added an assist to his goal, Jonas Spaulding also scored and Ross McFate made 18 saves for the Canes, who visit Harwood on Wednesday.
