2001 Vancouver Selects win Blades High Performance Invite
After a disappointing loss to the Machine Orange on Friday, the Vancouver Selects won three straight pool play games and gained the Blades Invite Championship Game against the Orange Sunday. The Machine won all four of their games over three days and looked to capture their second straight tourney title in consecutive weekends.
Carter Anderson and Sasha Mutala each had a goal and an assist for the Selects as they took a 3-1 lead into the third period. The Machine fought back scoring two goals in the final four minutes by Killian Kiecker-Olson and Clay Hanus. The Selects would get goals by Mutala and Ethan Leyh and the Selects would avenge their loss to the Orange on Friday to win the title.
