Fort William Canadiens U18 'AA'

In a tightly contested game on Wednesday evening, a last second Joseph Joubert goal ended the game with the West End Bruins in a 2-2 tie.

Joubert opened the scoring, grabbing the puck in the neutral zone and racing down and scoring on an odd-man rush.

The Bruins got on the board late in the second period with a Kehl Thompson goal as the two teams played four on four.

Just over five minutes into the third period, Chase Macsemchuk converted a pass off a rush to give the Bruins a 2-1 lead.

With the seconds ticking down, Joubert fired home his second of the game and seventh of the season with less than one second remaining on the clock to finish the scoring at 2-2.

Nicolas Pavletic earned the tie in net.
