Suds Canned by the Call

Schlitz (5) vs Last Call

Thursday October 23

West Roxbury 10:00

5-1 Loss

Sounds like the Guys and Gals in Gold had a tough night at the rink on Thursday. The Suds took on the Last Call in Roxbury latenight and came away with a beatin'. Thanks to everyone who showed and helped out playing out of position for a while. Not much to report on but there were a few stories trickling into World Headquarters here... so we'll hear from them.

This excellent report came in from Mark Reynolds... his first Guest Blog appearance.

Here's Mark:

"Lizzy took a beating in net. Lots of shots; plus one guy fell on her head leaving her with very sore neck. If there was a star of the game, it was Lizzy. She made terrific saves. Three of the goals were breakaways. The other two were scrums in the crease. No soft goals allowed.

Last Call showed up with a full roster off the usual players. They played their floater game all night, giving numerous many opportunities for odd man rushes and breakaways.

Our D paring was
[Reynolds – Carl] Reynolds took 2 min for holding in 1st period; LC took a matching penalty for hooking. Overall, a very clean game.
[Stephan – Kilroy] Stephan played a solid game and demonstrated excellent puck-handling abilities

Offense
[Nelson – Pounds – Chuck] I think Nelson got the goal in 2nd period, but can’t confirm. Chuck and the Dr moved the puck well.
{Parker - Blake – Ken] Another strong game for Parker Blake and Ken were busting arse and made some nice passes

Have your seen Kilroy’s new bright blue 4x4 fry-o-lator?"

Great job Mark. Thanks for the story.

The only goal scored by the Gold was... I hear... Kevin Parker from Dr. Pounds. The only penalty belonged to Mr. Reynolds hizownbadself and the rest of the scoring.... came from the Call.

Now we will hear from our Besieged Babe of the Back Line.... Ms. Lizzy herself:

"Even though we lost, if I could only pick one star it would be Carl. He stepped up and offered to play d, even though he's new and getting used to playing with us, and he played really really well. He broke up plays, iced the puck on the penalty and really got in to a lot of plays,on the boards,on the ice, etc! He should keep up the good work! Also Stefan should be mentioned, his first line he was like a bat out of hell and as always he played a solid game. Everyone especially the people who filled in on defense played very good, the score should have been closer "

Alright! Thanks for the words Liz... we'll have to stand up for you a little better next time. Oh yes and our Gal had one more thing to add....

"Oh and something key from last night although you must already have reports of this, Dr Scott unselfishly as always brought the lone beer, and it was in 'fall" camo cans. I brought my empty home so I can refill it, hide it in the leaves, and drink it stealth in my backyard "

That is just tremendous.... all I can think about is Lizzy sitting in a pile of leaves sneaking beers and keeping out of sight. We should have a team outing with camo cans...

One last minute check in... from Veteran Presence Nelson Sharfman.

"A rather disappointing evening. We lost 8-1 or 7-1. They fielded a pretty strong team and their better players held back for much of the game. Eventually they overwhelmed us anyway. Our highlight was on the only goal for the good guys. It was a beautiful, no look backhand pass from Scott to Kevin in the slot who finished the job nicely."

Well... despite you grim outlook on the score... that was a nice recap. Thanks Nelson

No Game stars on this one kids.
