11:00 left and Randolph has gone into a Defense minded game; As I type that, Schroeder robs the Rams twice! So much for sitting back.

2:51 - Rams take another penalty, but Hills takes one just 11 seconds later to make it a four on four; A Hills fans shouts the line of the game: "Where ya from? Randolph?" towards the refs. I love the educated fan!

Under 1:30 and Hills still has their keeper in net, Rams keep pressing not allowing an extra player. Apparently a good move as Schroeder robs Fullman with a great glove save, just a few inches off the ice;

0:00 -- Game ends 4-2 Randolph and the Rams advance.

Shots in 3rd : Randolph -- 8 for 20; WH -- 6 for 12
