As I watched the games last night, I thought, who is that in net, Ken Dryden, Patrick Roy…or is that, Terry Sawchuk and Glenn Hall….OH MY GOD…compared to last week, when we saw, ‘Red Light’ Racicot and Les Binkley in net. Last night the goaltending was superior.
 
“It was really a spectacle to see”, stated one fan, who waited 2 hours in the Rain for Snowpants to come out and sign an autograph for her.
 
“Stevo seemed to really have it going on today, setting up Spinner for a number of quality opportunities”, state Lovie Edgar. ‘Husky Eye’ Salaris, seemed to think differently, “Stevo, was setting up a dinner for 8 in front of our net.  It seemed, in one shift he had five break aways”.
 
The magic seems to be wearing off the collared shirt on Shamus, as he only scored 2 goals tonight. Next week he plans to wear a tank top…’Maybe Mesh” he had said.
 
Injury wise, Snowpants lasted the entire night, but Ken Cribly left after the first game, with an undisclosed, lower body injury, as did, Jingles Kuprowski, who took a wicked slash from Razor McDonnel, with no penalty being called.
 
Yuri Metulynsky played a very solid game on defense and keeps, being the number one vote getter for the all star game.
 
Shovey Szcewczuk pushed down Hollywood Jaworiwsky to the ground, after the young Jaworiwsky hacked at Bearcat Meloche’s glove 8 times.
 
Hurricane Hann notched a number of goals, not bad, for being the oldest player on the floor and not being able to see very well.
 
In the end, with the score, 6-4…Rocky scored a goal from his own goal line, that gave the Blackcats the victory….after the game, 8th string goalie, Skippy Renaud talked about a theory he had, with the number of players on the bench and how easy it was for the goalies last night, I listened for about 18 seconds, and then said I had to take a phone call.
 
Next week, Junior Poisson is to bring his beer, not sure if he will be inserted into the line up…we may just see Juniors beer and not Junior.  Andy ‘Doc’ Brewin brings, his next 12 pack.
 
This week, 24 from Skippy, 12 from Doc Brewin and 12 from the Tomcats.
 
Fat bottom girls, really really do make the rock n roll world go round, and when I see you, I will try to get my Harry Ballsonue.
