Cads Jacked in Inglewood!

Cadavers (11) vs Inglewood Jacks

Monday December 15th
Bavis 9:10pm

7-1 Loss

The first game of the double header was a tough one... just like the second but more on that later. The Cads had a tough matchup with the Inglewood Jacks and while there was no shortage of skaters (the Red had 14! by the start of the second) it didn't make much difference against a team that certainly had some decent talent on the ice. The Red showed plenty of Zombie Pride but it just wasn't in the cards for them on this night.

Lizzy in Net.

Campbell, James, DWH, Valenti, and Daley on D

Larry, Reynolds, Roman, Nelson, Carl, Matt E, Gregson, Mitch, and Chuck up front.

The game started out pretty well. Depsite some early confusion, probably due to the Blogger trying to stand on the bench and coach... the Dead in Red held their own for quite a while against the guys in White. In fact the Red would jump out to a 1-0 lead when Nelson Sharfman (who else) would land one on the feed from DWH. That lead would hold until the end of the period even after killing 2 penalties, Greg James for Tripping, and Mike Campbell Roughing.

Let it be known right now friends that Our Gal Liz was having a very solid night in the pipes. There were several saves made throughout the first and well into the second that were terrific. She was keeping the Red in the game as the Jacks started to turn the tide.

They wouldn't be denied all night and they broke through to tie it in first 5 minutes of the second. Then the would go ahead a short time later on another good goal after spending a long time in the Red end. The killer would come at the end of the second though. On a power play (Valenti) they would make it 3-1 going into the third.

Thats where the train went off the tracks a bit. Another pair of penalties for Valenti and the Jacks would rack up 4 goals in the period as the Red seemed to get slower and slower. The last one was a real in your face job with about 15 seconds left in the game. Ouch.

Too bad because up until the start of the third this was a very competitive game.

Oh well.... here are some pics from the bloggers cell phone for you.
