Toronto Marlboros vs. Detroit Honeybaked U16, November 12, 2016
2016 OHL Battle of the Border

MAR #18 D Yelle, Erik (2019) – Good aggression going to the wall. Good patience with the puck, took that extra second with the forecheck on him and chose the right path. Nice play at the offensive line to keep the puck in. Good size and lateral movement.

MAR #86 F Hughes, Jack (2019) – Showed skill when his 2 on 1 pass was blocked and showed good hands to take it back and score 2-3 goal. High end hands and puck control. Very tough to contain. Moves the puck quickly.

MAR #89 F D’Amico, Daniel (2019) – Quick shot, goalie got most of it as it dropped behind him then backed it into the net giving D’Amico the goal. Turned puck over when he faced pressure.

DHB #16 F Roth, Ryan (2000*) – Great pass two on one to set up 2-0 short handed goal. Good forecheck pressure. Handles the puck well.

DHB #24 D Perrott, Andrew (2019) – Physical along the wall. Good size and very good strength. Decent puck skills. Nice open ice hit one on one. Doesn’t try to do too much with the puck, hard accurate passes. Keeps his feet moving on the point to open up for shot. Good puck protection and pass off with pressure. Big hit in open ice broke up a play and knocked over his own teammate in the process. Would float to the top of the zone at times. Top power play

DHB #26 F Badal, Jacob (2019) – Quick shot off the draw fired over the net and out. Good power in his shot, but constantly fired it over the net. Takes the body in open ice.

DHB #28 F Nodler, Joshua (2019) – Good path to the net. Good offensive zone positioning without the puck. Took the puck to the net on a turnover. Decent hands. Moved the puck well in the defensive zone on the rush. Went to the net and fired a good shot to score 4-2 goals.

DHB #49 F Savage, Ryan (EVT/2018) – Drove the net on a short handed turnover and scored 2-0 short handed goal. Reaction time is excellent, very quick on scoring chance. Great release on his shot. Strong skater with quick feet. Excellent pass to set up scoring chance.

DHB #92 D Miller, Mitch (2019) – Quickly on opponent down low. Good reaction time. Good skating. Good speed, carried puck down the wing. Didn’t force his pass, eventually shot the puck off the opponent skate and in for 5-2 goal.

DHB #31 G Guzda, Mack (2019) – Decent side to side. Good size, thought he had the puck but lost it. On the penalty kill, puck dropped behind the net and wasn’t aware and knocked it in for first goal against. Keeps getting some of it but not all of it. Shoulda had the second goal against.

Final Score: Detroit Honeybaked U16: 5 – Toronto Marlboros: 2
