The Madison Dodgers will face off against the Pequannock Golden Panthers at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. Madison's defense has only allowed 0.3 goals per game this season, so Pequannock's offense will have their work cut out for them.

Meanwhile, Pequannock had already won three in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 2.7 goals) and they went ahead and made it four on Friday. Their defense stepped up to hand the Devils a 5-0 shutout. Considering Pequannock have won four matches by more than three goals this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
Pequannock's win bumped their record up to 7-3-1. Madison's draw gives them a new season record of 9-0-2.
Madison took their victory against Pequannock in their previous meeting back in September by a conclusive 3-0 score. Will the Dodgers repeat their success, or do the Golden Panthers have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
