Three goals in quick succession spanning about a minute-and-a-half in the second period did the damage for the Trenton Golden Hawks as they silenced the Toronto Warriors for the second time in as many games head-to-head.
Nolan Nicoll posted his first win and shutout as a Hawk in a 4-0 win at Scotiabank Pond on Sunday, the Hawks second win by that score in the same week.
The Hawks outshot Toronto 10-4 in the first but couldn’t get one past Bogdan Bogomolov.
Trenton would break out in the second with a whopping 29 shots and first struck just over six minutes into the frame.
Beckett Ewart’s second effort off a blocked shot resulted in the opening goal, his fifth of the year, followed by two in 19 seconds from Ethan Brassard and Kaiden Harmon, each with their third of the season to cruise into the third.
The Hawks put the game away with an Evan Norris marker at 8:07 of the final period, making their three-in-three weekend a winning one.
Kale Mace posted two assists to add to his team-leading point total of 13, with Hunter Spicher (first point as a Hawk), Niko Krmpotic, Ryan Chamberlain, Mason Musclow, Sterling Poff and Owen Rivers (last two with their first OJHL points) adding one helper each.
Trenton outshot Toronto 50-16 to improve to 3-4-0-0 ahead of a quieter week before another rematch with the Warriors at the Dunc at 7:30 p.m. Friday.
