Icemen Drop Preseason Opener to Ghost Pirates

JACKSONVILLE, FL – Riese Gaber scored a goal and an assist to lead the Savannah Ghost Pirates to a 5-1 victory over the Jacksonville in the preseason opener for both teams played at the Community First Igloo Friday night. 

Gaber set up Savannah’s first tally at 13:44 of the first period as Will Riedell finished off his shot to make it a 1-0 game. 

Gaber potted a goal of his own in the second period to extend the Ghost Pirates edge to 2-0 after 40 minutes of play. 

The Icemen got on the board at 6:31 of the third, when Zach Jordan slipped a shot through  the five-hole of Savannah netminder Evan Cormier to put the score a 2-1. 

However, moments later, the Ghost Pirates found success on the power play as Ben Steeves rifled a one-timer into the net past Icemen netminder Matt Vernon, while Logan Drevitch potted the second power play strike for Savannah to place the score at 4-1. 

Liam Walsh would later tack on a fifth Savannah goal with 30-seconds remaining to put the score at it’s final 5-1. Savannah outshot the Icemen 42-17 in the contest. 

The two teams meet again on Saturday at 7:00 p.m. at the Community First Igloo.
