We beat the Green Bastards with only 8 skaters. Pierre, Hob,& myself on D. Sergio, P.A., Karl, George, & Claude upfront.....Game on!
Started off back n forth for about 8 min. 'till Hob pull a Boner! Came around our net and headed right up the middle...deke one guy, deke second guy, third guy....not so much...Oh look it's behind Warren. Doh!
Almost right of the center ice face off Sergio carried it in an let one rip from the top of the left circle, off the blocker and in! Bam! 1-1. Hob feeling better.
Our first star of the night, George, started the play for our go ahead goal. He was on his wing in our end, puck came round the boards, George came down low and picks it up near the hash marks, plays it up the boards past the pinching D, and out we come 2 on 1. PA makes a great pass across to Claude and he makes no mistake, top shelf glove side...2-1 for the Good Guys.
They tied it up at 2. We got caught pinching and up they came 3 on 1. I took a whack at 'em and he flubbed it, and rolled through the five hole. Doh! 2-2.
Warren was solid and nothing soft was getting through. We managed to keep most of the shots from the outside and did a good job controlling the rebounds and the front of our net.
George once again got things going on the winning goal. Picked up a loose puck in the neutral zone and streaked (term I use loosely) cross their blue line. Quick pass over to PA who was driving the net. PA did a good job kicking it up from his skates and got the shot off. Instead of going for the big turn, he put on the breaks, and banged in his own rebound. Bam! 3-2.
We hung on for the next 6 min, played smart, didn't cough it up and grabbed the Win! Rob "The Green Bastard" had a solid game as well. We peppered him with some good chances. It was a solid win!
