Parksville- The Quality Foods Oceanside Generals got back in the win column with a 4-0 victory over the visiting Kerry Park Islanders on Saturday night. The win comes after back-to-back losses this week, 7-6 against Westshore and 6-3 to Campbell River.
Veteran forward Foster Martin would get the scoring started on Saturday when he buried his own rebound for his 7th goal of the season. The Generals would take a 1-0 lead into the second period after out shooting the Islanders 18-7.
The Generals would come out of the gate firing in the second. Liam Moody would notch his 8th of the season just 34 seconds into the period. Less than a minute later, Trey Boylan would put the Generals up 3-0 with his 6th of the campaign. Isaac Leik would add a power-play goal before the period would come to an end to put the Generals up 4-0.
The Generals would test Islanders’ goaltender Spencer Deakin 11 times in the third but the former General came up big to keep the score at 4-0. Jake Sweet turned away 26 shots for his first shutout of the season.
The Generals return to the ice Friday on the road against Comox before returning to the Howie Meeker on Saturday to host Saanich.
