00:00 Van Baren over the top of the net. Back to Neely.
00:14 Heywood now. He would have got the equaliser for the
00:19 castle on Friday night. Bit of a blocked shot there.
00:25 Good opportunity for Leeds. Working this puck really well here so far.
00:32 Howlett now on the left side. Inside and finds a way through the 5 hole
00:36 of McLaughlin. And it's Matt Baren, number 37.
00:40 There's only 15 or so seconds remaining of the man advantage for the Leeds Knights.
00:46 Moving the puck well. Neely I think it was to Howlett.
00:49 Finds the man just a little bit too open to see what it's like in the crease of McLaughlin.
00:55 Comes the nice pass inside. Finds the man in the paint.
01:02 And able to just feed it through. De Bonner as well.
01:10 Such a big fan on his shot and this opportunity here.
01:13 Baren's going to be first for this one. Got Lee Vendicott inside.
01:16 Bit of a toe drag and finds the back of the net.
01:20 And Matt Baren's going to not only double Leeds' tally but double his personal tally
01:24 for the night. We'll see here in the record replay.
01:28 Great bit of work. Just got a bit of stick handling that.
01:35 Finds the back of the net with a shot as well.
01:38 And just as Hull would feel they were starting to grow into the game.
01:44 The Knights extend the lead to 2.
01:52 Turns away.
01:57 Two minutes for Rutting. The time is 20 minutes and 25 seconds as Matt Howlett
02:04 finds a way up the middle, goes direct.
02:08 And a little move to his left before firing it across the body of Jordan McLaughlin.
02:13 We'll see here in the record replay. Finds a way through.
02:16 And just gets the shot away into the bottom left corner and the Leeds Knights lead by 3.
02:25 Second power play goal of the evening for the Knights.
02:28 Confirm the penalties. 20 minutes 55 against number 21 Bobby Chamberlain for Rutting.
02:36 Didn't take them long after. Just 40 seconds or so of the man advantage.
02:44 Chance for a quick break here but once again the pass just isn't quite as clean as it needs to be.
02:51 Work their way back onside as Barmer sends that behind the net.
02:57 Nice feed for Braydon.
03:04 Brookbar following you there, just sort of got across the line.
03:07 Braydon almost diving to get past him.
03:11 Another scrappy loose one there, comes across to Barmer from Bartholomew,
03:15 finds the back of the net.
03:17 Just what Hull needed.
03:19 Great strike from Declan Barmer here.
03:28 Hull's got a scrappy loose one, Bartholomew gets the pack across.
03:31 Gets the puck across to Barmer.
03:33 Barmer rifles it over the left shoulder of Gospel.
03:37 Get Hull back within two to find the goal that's so desperately needed.
03:43 On celebration Declan Barmer just letting out I think a little bit of the frustration as well
03:56 that's been building during this game.
04:04 We're back underway, Sea Orcs on the board.
04:08 Goal, timed at 31-19.
04:18 It's caught from Rota Spech, finds Bonner, oh it goes past.
04:22 Ends up against the Plexi.
04:24 Chilcot as well that's keeping in the lead zone.
04:29 Now find Howlett though, got Boeser ahead.
04:32 Find Boeser, a great pass and a great finish.
04:36 And just like that the Knights bounce back.
04:39 Santana just couldn't quite find the puck.
04:48 Little saucer pass from Matt Howlett.
04:51 Let's see on the record replay, a nice finish as well just going across up and over McLaughlin.
04:57 Jordan Boeser with his first of the night.
05:02 Stick across, will find Towner.
05:13 Bonner will send it back behind the net to Gospel as Hull make a change.
05:23 Looking ahead, looking to Fred Brown, I think he'd already made the turn and Hull may have a chance now.
05:28 Ulrich inside, Sobchak, Ulrich finds a way in.
05:31 Great bit of work, Sobchak down the left side gets the pass across and Ulrich
05:36 just rushing the paint and manages to just loop it over the top here.
05:41 We see it again, Owen Sobchak just patiently waiting.
05:44 I think it's Noah McMullin who may be committed down to the ice, maybe a little bit too early, gave himself up.
05:49 Sobchak just rushed past him.
05:51 And it's Finlay Ulrich with the finish.
05:55 Seahawk doing everything they can to try and change that.
06:16 Sfat goes back and the pass just doesn't find a way through.
06:21 Chance now inside, Kieran Brown, 1v1 with Jordan McLaughlin.
06:25 And finds a way past the outstretched left leg of Jordan McLaughlin on the breakaway.
06:32 And when needed the captain stands up and makes it count.
06:39 Great bit of movement across to Brown's right and just waits for McLaughlin to commit.
06:46 Slides it in the back door.
06:49 And here we go, drop the gloves, got Chamberlain and Endicott I think it is.
07:08 Just see as that puck has been cleared, two of them give each other a bit of a look.
07:13 And Chamberlain wants more.
07:36 And a few more words over in the penalty box as well.
07:39 Burn-Enchi himself and does so, sends it round the boards.
07:42 Two whole players here have a look to gather it.
07:45 Back to Bartholomew, Barron goes all the way round him to try and almost sneakily dispossess him of the puck.
07:50 Pass inside and what a finish!
07:53 Sobchak, just what the Seahawks needed.
07:58 Beautiful bit of work.
08:02 Rob Bartholomew did so well to keep hold of the puck and then Emil Svec finds the pass inside.
08:07 Sobchak works it so well and then the backhand finished the match.
08:12 Goal of the night for me that one, that's done a bit of work but still a long way to go for the Seahawks.
08:19 6 minutes 16 on the clock for the third time tonight.
08:24 They cut the lead to two.
08:28 Chamberlain just almost stabbed at that one.
08:32 Hall now with the empty net, Leeds in possession.
08:35 Off the board for Howler, he's got Bueyser alongside him.
08:40 And finds the back of the net for Leeds 6.
08:45 And with that Leeds will secure their second win of the playoffs.
08:53 See on the record replay, just got to make sure he found the gap, Farmer doing all he could.
08:58 As you get closer and closer to that goal you feel less of it.
09:05 Eventually Bueyser had a bit of a lane to find the back of the net.
09:11 And with that the Knights will go to four points in the playoff table.
09:17 As will the Peterborough Phantoms who got a late score, the final score.
09:22 Von Peterborough the Phantoms have beaten the Bees four goals to one tonight.
