The Solar Bears won an important road game tonight against the South Carolina Stingrays, assisted by a beautiful glove save from Toronto Marlies prospect Rob Madore.
The save came during three-on-three overtime, on a two-on-nobody breakaway by the Stingrays. No problem for Madore, apparently, as he reads the play and leaps across the crease to snatch it out of mid-air with his glove.
Sadly this didn't happen at the Solar Bears home arena so that the crowd could go wild, but hopefully the cries of disappointment at the stone-cold "Rob"bery were loud enough. This is Madore's first win in two games played since returning to the Solar Bears from his jaunt up north to back up Garret Sparks.
