Box Score Andrew Hunt and the Varsity Blues men's hockey team kept their playoff hopes alive with a 2-0 victory over the Waterloo Warriors on Saturday night (Feb. 3) at Varsity Arena.

On senior's night and in possibly his last career home game, Hunt was perfect between the pipes. He made 23 saves for his second consecutive shutout to hand U of T their third straight victory. The economics major hasn't allowed a goal in the last 148 minutes in 57 seconds. He's accumulated 58 saves during that span.

Matt Campagna continued his impressive play lately. He picked up a critical two points, assisting on the Blues opening goal and sealed the victory with an empty-netter. The third-year forward has recorded 12 points in the last six games. Max Lindsay scored the gamer winner just four minutes into the third period.

U of T is 7-3 since the new calendar year, which translates to an overall record of 11-14-1. They are still tied with Windsor for the final playoff spot in the OUA West division, but hold the tie breaker. The Warriors drop to 9-14-3 on the season.

Toronto slowly gained momentum after the opening faceoff. Their best chance came at 10:41 when Hunter Atchison was behind the net and found Scott Kirton alone in the slot for the one timer. Hunt made a couple nice saves to keep the score at zeros heading into the first intermission.

Hunt was at it again in the second. Down in the butterfly position at 10:18, the puck bounced over to Warrior Keigan Goetz with an open net and Hunt stretched out behind him to make the impressive save.

U of T continued to press late in the second frame. Aidan Wallace missed the top corner off a rebound with less than 17 seconds left and the game remained scoreless after 40 minutes.

With some extra room on the ice because of a four-on-four situation, Matt Campagna carried the puck from end-to-end diverting numerous Warriors before setting up Max Lindsay for the opening goal just 3:53 into the third period.

Late in the frame, the Warriors and Goetz thought they tied the game, but the referees called a high-stick to negate the tying the goal. Campagna sealed the victory with an empty netter with 36 seconds left.

The Blues head on the road for their final two regular season games and up first are the Brock Badgers (12-8-5). Each team hold a victory in the season series with U of T capturing the last matchup 3-2 in January. Puck drop is 7:15 p.m., at Seymour-Hannah Centre.
