Zombies send the Blues home sad.

Cadavers (10) vs Blues
Tuesday Nov. 20
UMass Boston
9:20pm

2-0 Win!


The Zombies have finally broken the curse of the House of Horrors. That's right, last night, with only 9 guys, and a substitute goalie, the Cads took on our old rival the Blues and came away with the first win at Umass in FIVE trys. Zombie pride was in full effect for this one and everyone who showed deserves a big hand from the crowd.
OEJ was out for this one but the goaltending duties were abley filled by Elli (El-ey) who apparently plays for like 3 teams and I guess just felt like picking up an extra night. Good for us, because by all reports he was awesome. Managment will tap him again as a resource for fill in duty but the search for a full time netminder will likely continue.
Again reports had this one as being a good game, lots of action back and forth. Our old friend and Richard-Head who wears the light blue shorts and #35 was up to his usual bad behavior. Apparently giving it pretty good to Cads vet Ken Goldenberg. We'll have to tuck that away for future reference...hopefully we'll get a chance to thank him for the kindness he bestowed on our guy Ken. Apparently later in the game this loser tried to glove a Marc Valenti slapper and left the ice shaking his hand. Poor fella.

Here's how the squad looked. Valenti, Stephan Wennik, and DWH on D. Dan Gregson, Matt Elliot, Ken, Mike Jasse, Kevin Parker, and Larry Bell on O.

Matt Elliot got the Zombies going on a goal in the second period that came from Gregson. That would prove to be the game winner as the blues were unable to solve the Goalie the rest of the way. Marc Valenti added the insurance goal in the third, Stephan and Larry with the assists.
The Sheet shows that Gregson went off for a trip in the second and there is an unmarked penalty for the third period.
Good game all the way around... good enough for...

Game Stars.
3rd Star. Matt Elliot. Matt is staring to heat up again, now that the "honeymoon" is over and he's finding the net again in his sophmore season with the mighty Schlidaveurs. Great work as always Matt.
2nd Star. Marc Valenti. Another impressive rookie... not to mention Mike Lowell look-alike. (thanks to Magic Mike Jasse for that one). Marc has been a nice addition to our D corps and has had a knack for finding the net... which we always like. Good job.
1st Star. Usually reserved for OEJ... but for this one its Substitute Goalie Elli. A star for not only showing up, but for playing great and earning the zero. Thanks a lot.

Two games next week kids. Get your stories straight with Kilroy....
and have a happy Turkey Day.
BTW if anyone knows where exactly I can get a turkey like this one, stuffed with cheeseburgers....drop me a line.
