After a few days off over the Christmas holidays the Streetsville Tigers were back on the ice on Friday for 2 games against the out of towners from St. Catharines and league rivals Mississauga Terriers. With thoughts of turkey, cranberry sauce, PS3, Halo�c.still fresh on their minds it was no wonder they came out more like kittens than Tigers.

They quickly found themselves down by 2 goals at no fault of Conor Clark who kept the Tigers within striking distance. With their backs against the wall Adam Galbraith started the comeback with a shot that he roofed after an adept pass from Davis Stan with just over 1 minute remaining in the 2nd period.
