Back on track
Back in the W column. We put a 7-2 beat down on the Black/Orange Bastards. On the back end we had Pierre, Ti-Gas, Bill & Ken. Upfront we had myself, Gilles, Hob, Guy, George, PA, & John.
We got off to a much better start. We were better at getting it out of our end, although we definitely still need some improvements there. The biggest difference is we were hanging on to it better through the neutral zone and were able to carry the puck in. As mentioned after last weeks game, we dumbed 'er down. We were shooting and going to the net. We started getting some early chances and it seemed to give us some jump. We jumped out to 3-0 lead. Then in one shift, they got one to make it 3-1 and we went right back up and scored two all within the space of a couple of minutes to make if 5-1. Things settle in and we started to fall asleep. They slowly took the momentum and scored a couple to make it 5-3 with more than 10 minutes to go. We slowly started to push back and then we got a power play from a high sticking call. PA popped one in on the ensuing Power Play and Guy capped it off with another late to make it 7-2. We cruised to the finish and there ya have it ya Black Bastards! 7-2 for the good guys!
The highlight or lowlight depending on how you look at it was the Black Bastards second goal. Kenny was tied up in front of our net with someone and promptly proceed to dump his sorry ass on the ice while simultaneously Hob tried to clear it out or our end with a pass across the blue line. Their D man intercepted and fired a quick wrist shot at the net. Meanwhile, Ron was enjoying the molestation of this guy as the puck slid gently by into the net. The ref himself unsure of what the Fuck just happened....called Goal! Waved off the delayed penalty while both teams stood around confused. A clusterfuck of a play worthy of any Beer League highlight reel!
Just a heads up! The 'effing Beer store closes at 9pm now on weeknights. Found that out the hard way.....Sonofabitch!
