I Have Returned. . . Didja' Miss Me?

minor i
Mutineers (6-4-0) 5
Blue Devils (5-4-1) 4







It looks like the offense doesn't mind the early games, the Defense could use a little extra nap time before the game. This one started with a three goal first, Nathan Hamilton fires two for the Mutes and John Lloyd saves Devil face with the last of the frame. The Devils tie the game in the second with a Scottie Speelman power play goal, but the Mutes right the ship with a Patrick Haley goal. Unable to keep their attitudes in check, the Mutineers surrender another power play, Neal Wacker ties the game, followed by another power play where Aaron Hawley takes the first BDI lead early in the third. The Mutineers have no sympathy for the Devils, they tie the game in regulation with a Mickey Syrquin goal and Chris Kirton strikes for the win in the extra period. Fifty-eight minutes in penalties, total! Thirty-four go to Brooks Willhoite, alone!

Snipers (7-3-0) 4
Silverwings (2-7-1) 2






The Snipers continue their unheralded race for history with another stupendous outing. In the first Jeff Vaughan stands alone with a slim Sniper lead, the second had a little more action. The Wings tie the game with a Kellen Kaufman goal, Vaughan restores the Sniper lead, Mika Hyytiainen and Kyle Rybak turn that lead into a mountain. Kaufman leads the expedition up the mountain but the Wings succumb to exposure just out of base camp. Matt Walker is strong in the Sniper net, again.

Is this inter-league play?

Brewzers (5-4-1) 5
LSI (3-1-0) 1





The Brewzers were in rare form tonight. An early Brewzer power play doesn't go to waste and David Counce sets the tone with the special teams goal, Brian Flashbart seals the first with another Brew crew goal. Andrew Radic adds another to the pile and the lead goes four-nil with Scott Edwards' goalie puzzler. Radic scores again sending the Brewzers into a goal induced hangover, allowing Kirk Seiter to spoil Mike Moore's shut-out- just one goal allowed on twenty-two shots.


Warriors Major (5-4-1) 2
Grave Diggers (5-5-0) 5




I'm not sure why these two are playing against each other, but nonetheless the Warriors, Major, started off in their just place with a Mindo goal. The Diggers fly in the face of the Major I team with first the tying goal from Jason Neal then after a brief hiccup resulting in a Warrior goal from Gijsbert Debruijn, they re introduce Bobby Michaelides to the wrist shot, with goals from Ryan Kelley, Jason Neal (again), and Tiffany Hauck. Maybe these guys should rename the franchise: Warriors Minor.

MAJOR I

Puckers (2-6-0) 0
Shockers (5-5-0) 7

Matt Walker agreed to collect the check for his time in goal for the desperate Puckers, unfortunately he was there in body only. . . The Shockers hit 'em hard with a vulcanized deluge starting with Chris Ensor, Eric Yepez on the pp, and Thomas Mathias- that was just the first period. Matt Russell knocks in the next two consecutively, Ensor doubles his total for the game, and finally Scott McMacken nails the Pucker coffin with the seventh Shocker goal. Shocker netminder, Topher McPherson had this to say, "I don't want to rub it in, but I had to stop a 3-on-0 to preserve the shut-out".

Patriots (4-6-0) 3
Spiders (2-6-2) 0

In my humble opinion, the marquee game of the night was the Pats/Spiders match. Two Goalies filling in after long hiatuses: Matt "Sexy Town" Sexton for the Spiders and myself for the Pats. The first period ended in a dead knot, and it looked as if the second would be the same. Sexton stifled the persistent Patriots with his quick glove and all of Andrew Patti's dogged drives to the net ended with a rebound into the corner for the Spiders. But the contraversial pile-up in the Spider crease ends with a hog-tied Sexton watching the puck creep across the line for Butch Hutchinson and the Pats. The third period saw the eventual wearing down of Sexton for two more goals: John Newell and Andrea Cortinas, while almost nothing could penetrate the Patriot defense at the opposite end. Linda Mason comes closest to killing the shut-out, with two late game rushes, but luck was with yours truly. YES! 2010 is my year!

Soul Patch (9-0-1) 2
Stickmen (4-5-1) 3

The Patches run the table for much of the regulation game with the C train leaving the station and scoring the first goal, Sergio Castillo at 3:02. The Sticks tie it up with a goal from Damon Flores but the Patches take it back with a Josh Jones tuck of the puck. All was going well for the Patches as they cruised through the third, even enjoying two power plays, well, perhaps enjoying is too strong a word- Rich "Oven Chicken" Wojcio escapes the extra man pressure and sinks the tying goal with less than thirty seconds left in regulation, and no gas left in the Soul Patch tank. Overtime ends in a draw, and the skills competition would decide the game. The first Stick to skate with the puck was Jesse "Lunchbox" Henderson and that would be all they would need to save the game.
