Gaels come from behind to defeat Carleton in shootout

| By:
KINGSTON, Ont. (October 30, 2010) – Joey Derochie of Sudbury, Ont., scored the only goal of the shootout to send Queen's to a 3-2 victory over the Carleton Ravens Saturday afternoon at the Cataraqui Community Centre.

Derochie's shootout winner came after the Gaels erased a two goal deficit after falling behind midway through the game to the Ravens.

Carleton built the two goal lead thanks to markers from Joey Manley of Ottawa, and Jeff Hayes, also of Ottawa.

But the Gaels managed to claw their way back into the game when Jordon Soquila of Maple Ridge, B.C., fired a backhand past Carleton goalie Matthew Dopud of Pointe Claire, Que., on a late second period powerplay.

Queen's would draw even at the seven minute mark of the third after some great work by Jonathon Lawrance of Steinbach, Man., and Brock Ouellet of Lindsay, Ont., along the side boards. Eventually, Lawrance would find Scott Kenway of Calgary, Alta., in the slot who fired the puck past Dopud to even the score.

After the overtime period solved nothing, the game went to a shootout where Derochie scored on Queen's first attempt by firing a perfect shot into the bottom left-hand corner of the net. From there, Steele De Fazio of Georgetown, Ont., made sure the goal would stand and the Gaels skated away with the win.

The shootout win now means that all four of the Gaels victories have come from either overtime or a shootout.

Next up for Queen's, they will host the Ottawa Gee Gees on Friday, November 5th at the Kingston Memorial Centre. The Gaels will be looking for their second win over the Gee Gees this season after winning in a shootout in their season opener in Ottawa.
