Literally…lights out. An unnamed Tomcat tried to play with the breaker panel just before hockey started, so the first 5 minutes of game 1 was played without full overhead lighting.
In the end, Hurricanes Hemis wished the lights stayed off so no one would witness their 5-0 loss to the Chevy Corvettes.
Teams:
Hemis – Chico in net, Hurricane, Shack, Rocky, Snowpants, Animal and Soupy
Corvettes – Bender in net, Tonto, Kamikaze, Bullwinkle, Jingles, Matador, Killer and Chevy
The Tomcat Algorithm allowed a 5-0 game you ask? Well, the Algorithm was set, but at the insistence of the Corvettes, who claimed they had too many forwards, a trade was made leading to the teams listed above, and an imbalance in the first game. Rocky was quoted saying, “We will not change teams going forward if teams whine and complain. If they don’t like it, they can develop their own algorithm and run the show each week.”
Game 2 started off with the Hemis getting an early 3-0 lead, but the Corvettes came speeding back to tie it at 3-3 at the end of regulation. Two 1 minute overtime periods were played and with 1 second left in the second OT period, Hurricane, who turned 65 yesterday, scored the winning goal for the Hemis! Storybook ending for the Hurricane.
Shout out to Sparky though while on IR with a lower body injury, showed up with his case (only needed to bring a half but brought a full). What a Tomcat.
Next week: Last night of hockey in 2022. Pizza and drinks downstairs afterwards. $5 for hockey, $10 for pizza. Rocky will send an email shortly and needs responses of who is in for hockey and/or pizza. Please respond ASAP once that email comes out.
