Matador Marlies – Chevy, Matador, Green Giant, Killer, Animal, Splitter, Big Ned, Mayday, Bender in net
The boys brought back “Greek Night” at the Kapusta, only Greek not in attendance was Shack. The 3 Salaris’ we’re passing the ball around faster than Soupy’s high school girlfriend got passed around Petrolia.
A big night, with 4 spares a side. The Spartans took both games 5-3 and 5-1. The pace was fast, the passes crisp, and the benches were rockin’, as we had some of the best hockey we’ve seen all year!
New comer Splitter showed why he got his nick name, quick feet and slick hands, he was buzzin’ all over the floor! He claims he never played organized hockey, but I don’t believe it, apparently badminton was his sport…
Making his return to the Tomcats was Sunny’s son, Solstice, or Sally. He got to play with his dad, and his hero, cousin Soupy. He showed no rust, and will be stepping in for the Matador in the tourney.
It has been nice to some young blood on the floor, with Big Ned becoming a regular, and Sally, Splitter, and Nico all playing. It really pushes the pace of play. Surprisingly, with all the speed, it was a very clean night, and has been such as of late, well done Gents! As Snowy remarked afterwards, no one was injured, however that could have been due to the fact that Chico was playing net, he had no opportunity get injured, or injure others around him! Hurricane also extended his Tomcat record as the oldest tomcat to score a goal, the streak just keeps on going!
A few shout outs from last night, The Rake showed up with 3 Hot N Ready’s for the boys and ran the clock all night. Sparky came out with his case of beer for the boys even though he’s been on the IR for most of the season! Great guys! This is what it means to be a Tomcat, all around class!
That wraps it up for this week, be sure to let Rocky know if you are in for next week! Last week before the tournament.
Enjoy Guys…
