Week 18 Recap
Lads,
2 blowouts last week as we continue to complete our 20 game pre season schedule.
Early match between the Canadians and the Flyers. All Broad Street Bullies in the opening frame as they out score the Habs 4-1. The National anthem wasn’t even over when the Flyers scored in the opening seconds. Habs tighten it up a bit in the 2nd as they allow only one goal scored by the Flyers. Both teams score 2 goals in the final period for a final Flyer victory of 7-3. Habs get 2 goals from the Ukie man Kryslak and 1 from their rookie blue liner Dan Barrett. Two Flyers score hat tricks, Cummings and new guy Diluzio and a single from the doctor May. Flyers went 1-1 on the PP and Habs were 0-0. Players of the Game went to Habs #9 Craig Kryslak and Flyers rookie #28 Marcello Diluzio. The Habs loss, their 6th in a row, now officially can only finish as high as 4th spot with 5 games left.
Late match between our top 2 squads the Bruins and the Oilers. Both teams missing their #1 forwards for this tilt. Opening period was well fought on both sides as they close out the 1st tied at 2’s. Bruins step it up in the 2nd frame scoring the only 2 goals taking a 4-2 lead into the final period. And that final period was all golden as the Bruins score 5 times for a final victory of 9-2. Bruins on a roll winning their 6th straight game. Cosentino and rookie Randa score for the Oilers. Bruins Tony Thomas gets a hat trick and singles to Cormier, McKean, Julius, Nelson, Sharp and Peacock. Bruins go 1-1 on the PP and Oilers go 0-2. Players of the Game went to Bruins #30 Gord Ide and Oilers #12 Tim Randa.
So there it is. This weeks games, January 30 are as follows 9:15 Oilers vs Canadians. 10:30 Flyers vs Islanders. The Bruins get a well deserved week off.
Have a great week and see you all on the ice!
