Hong Kong started the Winter Games versus the professional team – Harbin, and Harbin Qianwei (前衛) a team consist of ex-national team players and ex-provincial players. With both loses brings Hong Kong to the 3rd pool playing Chifeng (赤峰) and Macau.
Chifeng – a team from Hei Lung Zhang region, never imagine to have strong resistance from Hong Kong. Hong Kong finished the game by scoring 16 goals and 0 goals against. There are times when they try to push to score a goal, but our defense stand up against the test, also our Goalie King Ho played an outstanding game. Best player of the game goes to Terence Chim, he had 3 goals and 1 assist in the game, Alvin Sham shines with his line mates as well, as his line scores total of 7 goals total of 15 points. The whole team performs very well after a day of rest with a good practice. The whole team played out the system and the tactics. There are 5 times the team score on the power play and score 1 short-handed goal to completed the 16-0 win. Beside those 3 players, our under 18 players performs well Hayes To and Donald Chow scores 1 goal each, and Chilok Lau has 2 assists.
The whole team was happy with the performance and hopefully we can carry the momentum to our last game of theWinter Games, Jan 12th versus Macau. Last time Hong Kong participated the Winter Games, we finished only 8th place beating only Macau. We hope to be able to perform better and finished 7th place.
