The Tomcats finally had a decent amount of guys playing to avoid 3-on-3 or running hot with 1 or no subs. This made for a very fast-paced evening with lots of pretty passing, goals and saves.
Both Bender and Shack were between the pipes once again. Thank God for these two net minders. Without them so far, there were not be hockey to play.
However, next week, Shack is unable to play so will the Tomcats have another goalie to actually play? Time will tell.
Teams from last night were:
Chevy’s Black Corvettes – Shack in net, Rocky, Doc, Professor, Bullwinkle, Soupy and Chevy
Big Ned’s White Vipers – Bender in net, Tonto, Smiley, Hobbs, Animal, Snowpants and Bid Ned
The first game was taken by the Black Corvettes. While older on paper, the Corvettes showed game smarts and some good old grit to hold off the younger Vipers.
In the second game, the Vipers had to drop a player (Hobbs) so Soupy moved over to the Vipers for the final period. While the Birthday Boy Soupy made an impact, the Corvettes were able to prevail in game two as well. “Being half the age of Snowpants now, I feel I am 90% more efficient than one-quarter of the Tomcats 10% or more older than men’” explained Soupy, the birthday boy. Tomcat statisticians and on-contract data scientists are still trying to figure out exactly what Soupy was trying to convey.
Both Soupy and Rocky are out next week so Bullwinkle will run the operations.
Please, please, please check the beer list and make sure you have lived up to your responsibilities. Also, respond to Rocky as fast as possible each week. It makes Tuesday planning much easier.
Until next time,
Tomcats Forever!
