Plymouth beats Mississauga 4 2

Jared Boll scored a goal and picked up an assist while Michal Neuvirth turned in a stellar performance in goal as the Plymouth Whalers defeated the Mississauga IceDogs 4-2 Sunday afternoon, ending Mississauga's five-game unbeaten streak in the Ontario Hockey League.

Boll's third goal of the season late in the second period proved to be the winner as Mississauga's rookie defenceman, Alex Pietrangelo, gave up the puck in the slot to the Plymouth right winger.

Boll had three whacks at the puck beside the Mississauga net before finally lifting it over IceDogs' goaltender Andrew Loverock to put the Whalers ahead 3-2.

Boll also drew an assist when he set up John Armstrong, who scored his second goal of the season midway through the second period that put the Whalers (5-2-0-1) ahead 2-1.

Chris Terry and Evan Brophey had the other goals for the Whalers.

While Boll provided the Whalers with offence, Neuvirth kept Plymouth in the game with several big saves among the 43 shots he faced. The IceDogs had five odd-man rushes in the first period alone but the netminder stood his ground and turned back Mississauga (5-1-0-0) each time.

Loverock stopped 29 of 33 shots in the Mississauga net.
