Send me your votes at stickysaves@gmail.com, if you don't like one of the nominees, think that they are undeserving, or a terrible human being, then don't vote for them, please don't make this a forum for ragging on ringers and whatever. It's your vote, America, use it how you like, follow the links for general qualities of each award.
I really don't care how oxymoronic I-league all-stars is (are), I like recognizing good players, it can reassure a lot of people who feel like they're stuck on a terrible team with nothing to look forward to.
Looks like I missed a very exciting week of games . . .
Iceholes(5-2-1) 3, DFW Titans(4-3-1) 2
The Titans score first and lead after the first period with two goals from Chris Holder (Chris Pringle of the Holes scores once between the Titans goals), but with no one else producing for the Titans it was only a matter of time before the systematic Iceholes would emerge victorious. They score for the tie in the second and the win in the third (Lee "Shooter" Jennings, and David Base).
Blue Devils(7-1-0) 2, Puckers(4-4-0) 0
The Puckers face a team with a goalie this week and are hovering right at .500, has this team sought it's level? Chris Curtis Zoll is the only player who can figure out Patrick Donaghue and he does so singlehanded, twice in the first period. Thirty shots make their way to the Pucker netminder through the course of this game, only eight Pucker shots get to Jim DeBaro, allowing him a leisurely stroll to the shut-out. The Puckers can't hope to win any games with this sort of offense. The Blue Devils have the best record (along with the Pats) in the league.
Warriors(4-4-0) 4, Silverwings(4-3-2) 0
The Silverwings (Son of Phantom) get trounced, in perfect character with their hot/cold gameplay. A crazy game, David Blubaugh fills-in for the Wings and allows two goals to Scott "Mindo" Dolbee (are you kidding?), both in the first, separated by a goal to Eric Johnson. Eric scores again in the third with little protest from the Wings. The Warriors really show-off by securing shut-outs for two goalies: Jake Jordan stops all four shots he sees, then Phil Talley takes the ice and stops the remaining 17. With this win behind them, the Warriors will likely win out in the play-offs, who can say where that will leave them in regards to the keg.
Patriots(7-1-0) 1, Privateers(5-3-0) 0
My Pats do me proud (whilst I sit listening to relatives droning on about Tim Russert) and win the clutch summit meeting between the bridesmaid of last session and the freshman hot-shots. Doug Phillips takes the net for the Pats and has his hands full. The Privateers are a skilled group, not only with their shooting and stickhandling but also with their ability to get under your skin (just ask the Snipers), and the Pats put themselves down a man for 12 minutes as they show their frustration to the refs. But for two periods not a shot can find the net. Patrick Haley's second period penalty straddles the intermission and puts the Pats on the powerplay to start the third and Roy "father time" Haenselman scores before a minute can elapse in the final frame. Unable to overcome the tenacious D of the Pats (despite having three more powerplay opportunities, one a five on three) the 'Teers lose to another elite Euless team. Yeah, I said "elite" referring to an I-league team. So what.
Komets(4-4-0) 4, Snipers(3-5-0) 2
The Komets have made the long arduous climb to reach . . . dead even. Matt Sexton is likely still feeling the effects of the Privateers debacle last week. The Komets score four unanswered goals: Ryan "Rebel Yell" Smith, Mike Gallagher, Rich Duval, and Gallagher again. The Snipers muster only one from Ed Vogel before the second ended. In garbage time they log their second when Kevin Cook sends another to the front, this time Chris Hale cleans it up. The second half silence speaks volumes for the volume of second half scoring from the quiet Komet forwards . . . (ahem).
Chiefs(2-6-1) 3, Stickmen(5-2-1) 2
Has Blubaugh hit a wall? The Chiefs give up two penalties in the first, close enough together to allow the Sticks well over a minute of two man advantage, but the Chiefs are the ones who come out on top, Bill Broad scores a 3 on 5 shorty. The Sticks do manage to capitalize on the second penalty with the fine work of Alex Eysermans, only to give-up the lead less than a minute later to Broad again. Wojcio dives in from the point to put the Chiefs two up before the second ends. In the third the Sticks survive a penalty of their own but with three opportunities in quick succession, they can only score on one powerplay (Jeff Thomas), and come up short. Stillwagon stands out with 33 saves on 35 shots. The Chiefs are a team looking to the future.
Brewzers(5-3-0) 1, Gravediggers(2-5-1) 0
In this exciting, edge of your seat game, the Brewzers fail to make the most of their own powerplay but when Nidal goes to the box they score short handed (Sexton just can't get a break), then no one else scores for the remainder of the game . . . Really. Shooting and penalties are virtually even. Mike Moore gets a shut-out. The Diggers are not a great regular season team, but they consistently over-achieve in the play-offs, so get ready for a show.
Spiders(3-4-1) 5, Moose(0-5-1) 2
The Spiders go on the powerplay to gain the only goal for the first period with Mike Reeves solid efforts. Rich Wojcio evens the score in the second, but Bill Wessel takes it back thirty seconds later. Moose goalie David Jackson, somehow, gets credit for the tieing goal. But in the third it was all Spiders. Evan Callahan and Mike Reeves both score unassisted and then with a dominant powerplay possession, it's Callahan again who completes the play. Nina and Ellis sittin' in a tree . . . (SHUT-UP!).
Here come the play-offs.
