Furious Late Comeback Falls Short In Final Seconds As Boston Holds On For 16-15 Win
Written by Lee Roggenburg on . Posted in Uncategorized.
Clawing all the way back from a 7-goal deficit the Florida Launch were defeated 16-15 yesterday as Boston goaltender Jordan Burke stoned Kieran McArdle on the crease with 5 seconds left in the game, sending Florida home for the season. To make matters worse, the Ohio Machine were able to go into league-leading Rochester last night and came away with a 17-15 win, eliminating Florida from the playoff race one week before the regular season ended. Had Rochester won then the Launch would have made the playoffs with a win in Ohio next week and a Boston loss to Rochester.
We will have a game recap when available from the Launch web site.
