Ice Hawks Kiss Sister
The Ice Hawks needed a win tonight to help close the gap between us an
the Red Leafs but had settled for a 2-2 tie. The consensus is that it
is 19 DeMarquez
's fault. If he had scored another goal and
completed his Hat Trick we would have won. Damn him!! Damn him all to
Hell!!! Okay, that is a little much, how about "to Heck" instead.
19 DeMarquez
, inspired by his "Winnie the Pooh" boo-boo band-aid, staked us
to a 2-0 lead in the first period by pumping in two goals from short
range. If only Richard could have inspired others to play at his
frenetic level but alas........we were a docile bunch tonight, EXCEPT
for 10 Roy "The Hitman" Lagemann. Word of the wise: Don't piss off Roy!!!
After enduring a constant ration of roughing throughout the game
without one peep out of the referees' whistle, Roy decided to take
matters into his own hands. He laid out one of the perpetrators with a
vicious open ice hit. It was beautiful, man. He in turn got leveled by
#13, the guy whose feeble attempt to look like he couldn't skate fooled
no one except for the referees and the league representatives, and was
handed a 10 minute game misconduct for his efforts. Well, that just
about locks up the race for most PIM's (what the hell is that "I" for
anyways, silly french guys and their oh so silly abbreviations),
congrats are in order for Roy!!!
It could be said that it was the officiating, or the lack there of, is
to blame for that outburst, but it is now well known that we aren't the
league's favorite son after the cyber barrage we laid on Robert Savoie (said in French)
last week. Ah screw him anyways, he deserved it. This should inspire
us to take on the role of the underdog and make a concerted effort to
win this whole damn thing and win some hardware despite who is rooting
against us. Let' stick it to them!! Show them a thing or two!! Was it
over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Nothing's over 'til we say
it's over. You caan dewwit!! (Rocky Theme ("Flying High Now") in the
background). Inspired yet?
1 Wu
wanted some ink for his inability to finish off break aways,
so here goes. Michael. you SUCK at one on ones!! Get better at them!!
Don't you know we didn't win because of you? How can you SLEEP at
night? CHRIST ALMIGHTY!! HELLS BELLS!!
Jenny, Jenny Jenny......what can we say...? That was a very selfless
act on your part to serve the oodles of penalty minutes that Roy left
in his wake. Way to take one for the team, Jenny, we owe you
one....Roy?.....flowers for Jenny?....next game? (Wink-Wink,
Nudge-Nudge).
Notable Notes: G Bart
was stellar between the pipes tonight and
contributed with an assist as his save of a 3 on none break led directly
to a goal. Game star and a smiley face for him, great job!!!
19 DeMarquez
, what could be said other than, you screwed up!! Two goals just
isn't enough. Could you put a little effort into it next game?
12 Ross
, inspired by the Oscars Ceremony the night before, did a fine job
portraying 25 Pekarek
by playing all three forward positions on the
same shift. Speaking of Hank.......
Did anybody else notice the deluge of people heading for the box after
12 Ross
suggested that the 7 minute penalty should be serve by the "worst
forward"? That was comical and I know there is some commentary to be
had there, but....nevermind......
1 Wu
, I was just kidding......I mean...I really don't want to know if
you are having trouble sleeping.
Was anybody as surprised as I was that we didn't have to dress out on
the Ice Centre roof tonight?
We have some points to make up, gang. Let's Just Do It. Nuff said.
