On Saturday, Tomcats picked up The Animal off waivers, he was put on Waivers by the Edmonton Kozaks. “He was injected into the line up on Tuesday night. “We need to fill our roster with a few more players because we have had guys not coming out, COVID, injuries, unknown reasons, so the Animal was a perfect pick up for us.” Stated General Manager Finner.
“It has been a whirlwind, I thought I was going to clear waivers and be sent down to the Bismark Bisons but then the Tomcats picked me up and here I am in my first game with this great club’, stated The Animal.
TEAMS:
Bullwinkle Swamp Rabbits Bullwinkle, Sunny, Bender (G) Rocky, Stevo, The Animal, Kamikaze
Tunzie Lizard Kings Tunzie, Tonto, Falcon (G) Sparky, Chevy, Chico, Kramdon
First game, the Lizard Kings took it 5-2 in the second game, the Swamp Rabbits won 6-3.
Kramden could not miss and scored 6 goals he was like Leon Draisaitl out there.
Highlight of the night
A cross floor pass, with Chevy blasting one at the net and Bender came across and made the save. That is your highlight of the night.
“I thought the team played well in both games, the post was my friend tonight, I think Chico hit the post three or four times on me tonight”. Stated a beaming Bender.
Special thanks:
Sunny would like to thank all the Tomcats that brought in non perishable cans of food and to those who gave money for such, “The Tomcat Spirit is alive and well, so great to see”, stated Sunny.
Thanks to those who came early and helped with the empties for Sparky, thanks to the Animal, Bullwinkle, Chico and Stevo. Rocky presented a beautiful wallet to Sparky for all his hard work.
Animal was presented with two tee shirts and a Tomcat coozie and was welcomed to the team, it was too emotional for him to say anything, he began to weep when the tee shirts were presented to him. Tunzie an old team mete of his from the Beirut Bandits said, “He is overcome with the love the Tomcats have poured on him and can’t speak, he is crying uncontrollably up in the Tomcat room. He thanks everyone for their support and can’t wait to be back in the line up next Tuesday.”
Thanks to Sparky, for getting The Rake to pick up cheese, Kobassa and a case of Steam Whistle. The Rake came up on stage after hockey and put out the spread, thanks to Sparky and The Rake for doing that.
In Ending
Please let Rocky know if you are able to play next week. A simple text is greatly appreciated.
Is it just me or does Sunny not have the greatest blue eyes you have ever seen?
