After a first period that saw the Sharks scrambling to keep the Coyotes out of their zone the Shelburne squad allowed five unanswered Alliston goals to end the period.
It didn’t get any better in the second frame when six more Alliston goals lit up the scoreboard.
The Sharks managed to score a single from David Hooper late in the period.
Hooper got his second of the game early in the third period but from there is was all downhill when the Coyotes finished the game with three more to end the night with a 14–2 loss for the Sharks.
