I League Week 4: Fugaweez Rise to First.



We have reached the half way marker of the season with 4 down and 4 to go before playoff night. And low and behold, one team has taken control of 1st place…..at the same time, glorious battles ensued…3 Shootouts and a couple of close ones……

Fugaweez 2 Blue Devils 1
In the I league “game of the night” this was a biblical showdown of Good vs Evil….you decide who was who. A scoreless game till the third when James Deboro drew first blood for the Blue Devils on a Dan Glien Assist. Fugaweez retaliated right back on a goal from Chuck Dolbee. The score remained 1-1 on what we heard was an amazing third period, until Dallas Lehr hit the game winner from Dolbee with 42 seconds left. Fugaweez are now in control of 1st place officially at the halfway marker. Goaltending was phenomenal in this one. Mike Redmond stopped 18 of 20 while Bobby Michaledos stopped 12 of 13 on the night. What a game…

Wolverines 4 Snipers 2
Wolverines head coach Bobby Sirkis Jr gets his first win at the helm as the wolverines won this one 4-2. Greg Mersberger got two goals on the night, while the Conner brothers both put one in the back of the net. Snipers, who still are winless, got goals from Kyle Largent and Tom Buckner. Towards the end of this one, wolverines just dominated play.

Spiders 4 Ice Holes 0
Swami prophesied correctly on this one. Spiders dominated play in their 1st shutout of the season. A quartet of spiders scored in this one: Chris Gallagher scored his 5th goal of the season, while Mike Lambert, Jerrod Roberson, and Kris Navarre also scored. Spiders moved up tied for 2nd place and probably are the most underrated team in the League….more on that later in the week...

Stingers 2 Stickmen 1 (Shootout)
Stingers goalie Dana Fenili brought the total eclipse in this one, shutting the undefeated stickmen down in a shootout. Rick White for the Stingers and Alex Eyesermans for the stickmen had the regulation goals. Scott Childern’s had the shootout winner. Fenili stopped 18 of 19 as the Stingers look to crawl their way back into Keg Contention.

Patriots 1 True.com 0 (Shootout)
This was a typical Patriots win. Stingy Defense and Turconian Goaltending won it for the Pats who only allowed 7 shots for true.com, who fought with honor. We had a good view of this one and True.com would not be a push over. Pats Goalie Jesse Gonzales had several larcenous saves that would make Stars commentator Daryl “Razor” Ray cry and hide in a corner. Props must be given to True.com goalie Don Inmann who stopped 20 of 20 before going into the shootout. Finnish Hockey Wizard Antii Sivulla got the game winner for the Patriots in the shootout.

Komets 2 Brewzers 1 (Shootout)
Komets are off to the best start in Franchise History with a 2-1 shootout win over the Brewzers. Nate “Little Ball of Hate” Hodges had the shootout winner while Brett Bryant stopped all three of the Brewzers attempts in the SO. Goals in Regulation by “Dave” for the Brewzers and Rich Duval for the Komets. This was an epic struggle as both teams went back and forth on the attack. Komets are 1-0 in shootouts...could they be the "stars" of the shootout?….find out next week. Brewzers on the other hand need a win next week to hop back into the Keg Mix.

Shockers 4 Puckers 3.
We heard the final in this one was 5-4…but the score sheet says 4-3. Someone want to clarify? The Shockers get their first win of the session by beating the lucky puckers in what looked to be a hard fought battle. Shockers got goals from John Vance, Unknown, Bryan Conner, and Otto Bielss. Puckers Kevin Luechenhof, Travis Lehr, and Rich Gregory all lit the lamp in the losing cause.

Coming later this week…..Midseason Report: Who will Skate the Keg in December?
We can say this much….Tie Breakers are going to be a Beating…

Stingers winning goal was by Scott Childress, not Childerns. We know it's not the ABCs fault.

Also not the ABC's fault I'm sure, but we feel we need to bring it to your attention. The Week 3 game between the Stingers and Ice Holes went into the shootout after the regulation and OT score was tied at 3 apiece. A shootout winner should only be credited 1 goal, not the number of successful pucks-in-net during the shootout. The final score listed was 5-4, which is one too many for each team. Maybe not a big deal now but as you said, "Tie Breakers are going to be a Beating…" and GA is one of the tiebreakers.

Actually the shootout goal for the Stingers was John Harden not Scott Childress.
