Wheeler & Munro Real Estate team claimed their third consecutive “A” playoff championship in the Men’s Ball Hockey League with a dramatic 5-4 win over Karra’s Burgers & Fries team on Sunday, July 27, at the Benson Centre.
The game was packed with momentum swings, capped by a game-winning goal in the final minute. Devin Radley opened the scoring for Wheeler & Munro, followed by goals from Brandon Gilmour and Sean Lepage, with assists from teammates Isaac Barr, Byron Edson, and Mitch Lefebvre. Lefebvre added a goal of his own in the third to give Wheeler & Munro a 4-3 lead, but Karra’s Burgers tied it up with two minutes remaining.
With the clock winding down, Byron Edson started a tic-tac-toe play to Gilmour, who set up Pat Gendron for the decisive goal, sealing a 5-4 victory and the title for Wheeler & Munro.
“After a great season, our team grinded for that 3-peat,” said Michel Lefebvre, a longtime team member. “It’s a great feeling, and some might consider us a true dynasty,” he said with a chuckle.
