The Hawks pushed the attack in the final couple of minutes with goaltender Logan Matthews on the bench but couldn\u2019t beat Barrie goalkeeper Brendin Ramsey. Matthews&#8217; performance in the Huntsville goal earned him the team\u2019s Ironman award for the night.<\/p>\n<p>Coach Don Monahan said his team played well, just not good enough for the win.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"modern-quote full\"><p>A lot of our players don\u2019t know one another at this point on the floor so it was a little scrambled at the beginning. But by the end of the game they were pulling it together. It was an exciting game to watch. My guys competed and that\u2019s all I can ask.<\/p>\n<p><cite>Coach Don Monahan<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWe fell down a couple of times defensively and that\u2019s something we will correct with time. We fought through it and I thought we played a pretty stellar game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Hawks now take to the road for three games. They play Sunday in Halton Hills, then Cornwall and Gloucester next weekend.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u201dWe\u2019ll have some time to bond by next weekend, and I think they will buy into the system,\u201d said Monahan.   It\u2019s one big family here. We try to convince them its all for one and that kind of mentality and I saw that on the floor. They stood up for each other at times and helped one another so I like what I see.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Barrie Bombers only won one game of sixteen played last year and Monahan says there is no question they are a better coached team this year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know Luke Ringler,\u201d he said. My son played for him and so did my trainer, He\u2019s a great guy and he\u2019ll have those guys running. We meet them four times. This was just the first game. \u201c<\/p>\n<p>The Hawks also hope to have another goaltender join them Monday in time for the upcoming road games. Evan Peltier of North Bay, who has played previously in Huntsville, has agreed to join the Hawks again.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s quite a talent,\u201d said Monahan. \u201cAnd we\u2019re looking forward to good things from him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Huntsville\u2019s next home game is against the Clarington Shamrox May 18 at 8pm.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!
