This is Billy Concarney here with a brief update from last nights happenings at the Fishbowl. So without any further ado…here we go!
Sabres 8 vs Slayers 5
Well, the Slayers bid for an undefeated season was shelved last night as they came up against a chemistry filled Sabres squad. This one was close, like to the tune of 4-3 after the second. Both goalies turned in stellar performances. The third saw the Sabres build on that lead and the teams kept trading goals until Alex McLeod eventually tallied the game winner and the Sabres shut the door in this one. Noteables…Matt Strum had 2 goals and 2 helpers for the Sabres and AJ Brown tallied 4 points with 2 and 2.
Chill 13 vs Fire 3
Well…what can one say about this. Alex Yeadon and Brett Dempsey combined for 7 goals and 11 points to stay atop of the leaderboard for top scoring honours so far this season. Brendan Hanrahan turned aside 34 of 37 shots for a .919 save %. This was just total domination from the get go. I’m sure this is leaving Fire captain Anil Snook wondering how to right the ship which has clearly gone of course.
Hackers 14 vs Lynx 6
Hmmm…this capped off tonight’s barrage of scoring as the Hackers showed up with a full roster and took advantage of a Lynx short bench. Zach Payne filled in for an absent “you know who “ and actually played a great game. He made some big saves. Meanwhile at the other end of the floor Peter Regimbald played well to backstop his team to the win. Ted McGeen notched 5 goals this week and earned the league’s honour as HFHL player of the week.
And that’s a wrap…looks like things are tightening up at the top coming down the stretch. These last few games will be interesting to say the least.
This is Billy Concarney saying so long and reminding you that tomorrow is Remembrance Day. Please take some time to reflect on the freedoms we have here in this country of ours. Someone is currently paying or has paid the price for that.
Have a great week peeps!
