Giddy Up: Attack Up their Points with 5-1 Victory Over Colts
In a hard earned effort, the Owen Sound Attack would see to another point in their game against the Barrie Colts Thursday night putting them closer to a Playoff spot. A 5-1 unanswered victory for the Attack would also leave Attack Rookie, Pierce Mbuyi becomes 6 points and goals closer to some Attack records by Rookies. Along with Mbuyi, Landen Hookey, Cole Zurawski, Tristan Delisle and Jake Crawford all gain a goal to their 2025 season scores.
Much like many first periods in the 2025 season, both teams would battle it out for every inch of ice. With the Colts making an early goal in the period (By Barrie Captain Cole Beaudoin), Owen Sound would look to answer back in full force. Giving no room for error the Attack struck back, Mbuyi from the left wing of the Colts zone, going down on one knee putting the puck under the bar. Winning the face-off deep in the Barrie zone, the Attack would catch Barrie off guard, gaining the upper hand. Hookey would set up and execute a one-timer shot, the Attack were now up 2-1 over the Colts.
Straight into the second period, Attack’s Zurawski would waste no time making a shot from along the boards, finding it’s way behind Barrie Goaltender, Sam Hillebrandt. The remainder of the period would be spent in between a handful of power plays, penalties and good scoring chances. Carter George in net for the Attack would remain a calm cool force, making multiple saves. The buzzer would sound for the end of the second period with no additional movement on the board.
Staying to the path the Attack continued their push in the third period. 5 minutes in, Lenny Greenberg would pass the puck up and in over the blueline to the Colts territory. Finding the puck there, Zurawski would continue to push the pace, passing over to teammate Delisle, Delisle hammered home the puck into the corner of net making his 10th goal of the season. Barrie loosing control of the puck would see it fired back into their own zone. Speeding his way down the ice, Crawford took no chances, shooting at the net short-handed giving the Attack the nail in the coffin 5-1 final score.
Completing their weekend road trip, the Attack now head to the Soo to face off against the Greyhounds Sunday afternoon at 2PM. The road game can be streamed on CHLtv and heard on 560 CFOS Bear Radio.
