I League...Thanksgiving Style

As we sit here content from our pre-thanksgiving feast, we thought it would be good to write on the blog.

So here’s last week crap…er action…

Blue Devils 3 Brewzers 1

A short handed brewzers squad takes one on the chin as the Blue Devils bounce back to .500 on the season. Jamil Jabri scored the lone Brewzers goal. After that, the Blue Devils stepped up and played one of their finest games this season. Chris Zolle scored from Clint Wacker, while Ray Workman and Scott Speelman scored in the Blue Devils three unanswered goals. The Hot Gloria Buell extended her point streak to 2 games with an assist on the speelman goal. From Ray Workman, “This win was for Todd Smith, it’s his 40th Birthday, and he couldn’t look more the age if he tried.” From Jabri, “F&*#& you Nate Hodges.” Wow…harsh.

Ice Holes 5 Puckers 2

Ice Holes totally trounce the Puckers in this one. Things looked good for the Puckers at the start as John Hardin scored to put the lucky puckers up 1-0 in the first. Then the Ice Holes started playing hockey. Four consecutive scores for the Holes, as Chris Hayes gets a hat trick and Philip Hussey also taps one in. Travis Lehr would get some ice time for the Puckers and score for the Puckers other strike, but this one was all Ice Holes, the whole game. Wow…no penalties in this one.

Komets 6 Snipers 5

Well Defense was forsaken in this one. Komets were completely dominating this one, then the Snipers started roaring back. Michael Gallagher and Sean Kier had the Komets up 2-nil, but Lee Miller’s goal for the Snipers made looked to make this into a game again. Komets then pulled away on three strikes from Alex Atkins, Bruce Frankel, and Kier’s second of the night. Again, Miller and Atkins would trade goals as the score sat at 6-2 Komets going into the third. Then the Snipers started playing. Alex Eyesermans, Jesse Henderson, and Joe Tomme score for the Snipers in what looked to be the greatest meltdown to occur in I league History. However Komets survived the Snipers assault led by Tom Yockey?!?! WTF? Who had an assist in the snipers rally…that’s funny. From Head Referee in the game, Chris Skupien, when asked about Yockey’s play, “I didn’t even know he was out there, the sucking level looked to be level across the board”.

Grave Diggers 3 Warriors 2 (SO)
Head Coach Dallas Lehr was fuming after this collapse from his warriors squad and almost fired himself in retaliation. Eric Johnson and Scott Dolbee scored for the Warriors for the 2-0 lead and the Warriors held the lead with a minute left to play in the game. Then the Grave Diggers mounted an epic comeback. The Letter A scored on a Cory Howard Assist, while Amy By/rum scored the game tying goal with 24 seconds left in the game. (We are just going on what was on Pointstreak. We heard warriors are protesting based on roster violation...yeah right, like yockey will do anything about it). After a scoreless OT, it was former Stingers great Rodney Murray on the shootout winner to complete the GD upset over the undefeated warriors. From Lehr, “There will be no media allowed to our next practice, that is how inhumane I am going to be to this team.”

Patriots 5 Stickmen 1

Much like their inspiration in New England, the Euless Patriots, keep winning games, and make it look easy. Butch Hutchinson was the hero in this one, and pulled a Jussi by putting up four goals and an Assist in a complete thrashing of the stickmen. The up and coming Junior “Caketown” Lindamood also had a tally on the night. Most notably was the hot Sabrina York whose play was damned near flawless in what was undoubtly her best game ever, knotting two assists in the win. Patriots have won a lot in a row. In the interest of fairness, Timothy Schmidt scored for the Stickmen in the losing cause.

Spiders 3 Komets 2 (SO)

Fresh off their almost meltdown, the Komets couldn’t hold off the Spiders in this one as they blow a 2-1 lead in the third. After a scoreless first period, it would be Jon Hale to score on a Michael Ginnard assist for the 1-0 lead. Alex Atkins and ringer Scottie Baldree then gave los komets a 2-1 lead with 9 minutes and change left in the third. According to Komets Sources, the following occurred midway through the period on a sudden debacle which had Rich Duval putting the puck in his own net, credit to Mallisa “Smiley” Daniels, tied the game and sent us to OT. After a scoreless frame, it would be the GREAT PETE CLARK! to get the winner for the surging spiders. Hoorah for Turkey!

Happy Thanksgiving Peeps!
