Rangers win Halton Hills Best of the Best Tournament in a Shootout
The Oakville Minor Atom A Rangers were victorious over the Whitby Wildcats in the Halton Hills Best of the Best 2016 Hockey Tournament.
On Thanksgiving weekend the Oakville Minor Atom A Rangers defeated the Whitby Wildcats 5-4 in a dramatic shootout win. The weekend long tournament began early Friday morning.
The Ranger team followed a win and a tie on Friday with a loss and a win on Saturday evening to earn a spot in the Sunday final.
Both teams battled for every inch of ice and at the end of regulation the game was tied 4-4. A 5 minute overtime period didn't decide the outcome so the game went to shootout. Two Rangers scored while Ayden Ali stopped all the Whitby shooters.
Congratulations to the Ranger players, coaches, training staff, manager and all the parents who shared in the post game celebration.
