A wild finish gave the Clarington Eagles a 6-5 win over the Port Hope Panthers in the opening game of the Provincial Junior Hockey League Eastern Conference final Thursday night.
Chris Brydges, with his second goal, gave the Panthers a 5-4 lead with just 27 seconds remaining but Clarington’s Ryan Hall evened the score with 12 seconds left and teammate Cole Williamson tallied the winner with two seconds left on the clock.
Port Hope held a 2-0 first-period lead and were 2-0 after two. Isaac Langdon also scored twice for the Panthers while Tyler McGarvey opened the scoring for the club.
Game 2 of the series is Saturday night at 7:30 at the Jack Burger Sports Complex in Port Hope.
