Great Year....but ended with a Fizzle

As laid out in the last post, we ended our regular season with a fizzle by dropping the last 3 games of the year.  So then it was off to the year end Dynomites Tournament.


We lost the first game 2-1 to the Moncton Slowpokes.  I wasn't there, but by all accounts we outshot the Slowpokes but couldn't score (remember this theme).  So next was some boys from East Haunts NS.  at the Kay.  Sporting our hometown "Lewisville" jerseys at the Kay we promptly stank up the new joint with a 7-4 loss.  Now, mind you it was closer then the score indicates.  We got off to slow start and found ourselves down 4-1.  Be battled back but everytime we got within two, and the momentum going our way, they'd pop another.  They had about 3 or 4 good players up front and they burnt us with the long stretch pass.  We just couldn't adjust.  Although playing from behind we had to take a few chances in the offensive end.  Remembering our earlier theme....yes...say it with me....We couldn't SCORE.  They did not have a very good Goalie, but we made him look like Bernie Parent!


So next up was Sunday morning vs. the Saint John Rangers, who we found out had beaten our previous two foes.  Well we had a decent game and came away with a 3-3 tie.  Again....say it with me...We couldn't SCORE!  Had lots of chances, with the best one for last.  But before we get to that, what would a Dynomites tournament be without Lewisville getting a late penalty with too many men on the ice (P.A.).  So there we were with less than 3 minutes to go, short handed game knotted at 3.  Gilles gets a turn over near our Blue line and gets a clear break away from centre ice.....with less than two minutes to go....He Shoots!.....He...He...Wide Right! Wide Right!  NOOOOOOooooooo!  Gilles will be seeing that one all summer looooong.


We had another Kenny Dynomites incident, but I"m not getting into that.  To tell the truth I don't know what was going on there.


So another year comes to a close.  I was a good year, have a good summer boys!  Oh, lest I forget....according to Ti-Gas, Marc is going to have a Shit Snapping Party this summer!  I'll leave it to Karl to fill ya in on what exactly Shit Snapping is.  See ya there!
