With just two-and-a-half minutes left in the hard-hitting third period, Mooretown’s Ethan Rosseel took a roughing minor. Petrolia’s Tristan McKichan fed the puck to Nathan Reidhead who scored the game winning, power play goal, 33 seconds into the penalty.
The Oilers now take on the Lambton Shores Predators in the final.
The Preds punched their ticket with a 3-0 win over Ilderton. Hunter Oulds had two unassisted goals – one in the first, the other in the third – to power Lambton Shores to the win. Kayden McKenzie scored the Predators other goal. Brennan Stanlake had the assist.
