Sharks are Back with Convincing 7-4 Win over Warriors

September 26, 2021

The reshaped South China Sharks are back and it took them but one game to forget last year and chomp out a 7-4 win over the AsiaXpat Kowloon Warriors.

The Warriors were missing a few key players on opening night (David Belluche and Jake McDonnell) and it showed as the Sharks toyed with them for most of the night.

Sharks goalie Avery Gobbo (1st overall pick in 2021-22 draft) was solid in his first start in the CIHL. A silent warning to all that the Sharks are back - careful while fishing this year!

The game 3 stars:
1. Ben MacAskill - Sharks: 2G + 1A
2. Devin Welsh - Warriors: 2G + 2A
3. Kosuke Ikeda - Sharks: 2G + 2A
