Florida Eels Junior B Ice Hockey Team
The Florida Eels Junior B team is fire on ice this season. They defeated the Tampa Bay Bolts last week in their opening weekend series 2-1 and 4-2. They continued this effort in this last weekend’s Metropolitan Hockey League’s Showcase in Philadelphia.
The Eels Junior B team came out solid this weekend defeating the Charleston Wolverines twice over the weekend 4-2 and 5-2. Zack Buckland led the team with 4 goals in the 2 games, while Wehebe Darge had a hat trick in the second game against the Wolverines. Nathan Makler shut down the Wolverines offensively between the pipes only allowing 2 goals in the 2 games.
The Eels first loss of the season was to the Long Island Royals. Down 3-1 at the end of the first, the Eels fought back with two goals in the final period. The Royals slipped one by Martinez to make the final score 4-3.
Despite the loss to Long Island, the Eels are leading the MET league in wins and points. In addition the Eels have three of their forwards amongst the leading scorers in the MET League – Joey Giambalvo (8p), Zach Buckland (7p), and Cody Boyd (5 p).
