Coyne Comes Back to Murder the Canadians
The 20-year-old Central Junior Hockey League player Sam Coyne scored two goals last January 23 against his former Carleton Place Canadian teammates. Coyne lead his new team, the Gloucester Rangers, into victory against Carleton Place at its District Community Center. The win by the Rangers ended Carleton Place’s 2-game winning streak preventing the Canadians from securing the 8th and final place for the league’s playoffs.
With just 3:55 into the game, Coyne scored his first vengeful goal. His second goal was made 39 seconds into the third period burying the Canadians 5-1. Coyne has made 4 goals since joining the Rangers.
In spite of scoring consecutive goals in 10 minutes and 35 seconds during the final frame, Carleton Place failed to deliver the game’s equalizer — outshooting the Rangers 31-30 overall wasn’t enough.
Coyne, the 20-year-old native of Perth, played a total of 39 games for Carleton Place before being traded at the Central Junior Hockey League deadline last January 10 despite being the Canadians’ third leading scorer. The Rangers will be Coyne’s fourth team for this season. He was traded for Gloucester’s goalie Francis Dupuis who contributed 25 futile saves during the game.
The game’s referee, Patrick Brown, made only 7 penalty calls in the game. 5 of which belonged to Carleton Place.
