Cadavers fail to capture Sparta

So in a snowy Thursday night many would make the trek to Canton to take on the Spartans.  After a little bit of shuffling the eventually roster would fill out to a robust twelve skaters.  Somehow the score sheet disappeared in the snow, so my weathered memory is a little more clouded due to this issue.  The long and the short of it is that:


Spartans 4
Cadavers 2
Thursday March 7, 10:10 
at Canton A

The goalie was again excellent for us.  However we would quickly get down 2-0.  Jim Sullivan would rattle one, not quite home.  He grabbed  a pass from behind the net and riffled one at the net.  The goalie would get a very small piece of the puck.  The puck then hit the post and bounced out of the crease.  Jim raised his arms thinking that he had the goal, but he would quickly have to just get back on defense.

The Cads would eventually cut the lead to 2-1, but Sparta would quickly re-establish a 2 goal lead.  Later in the game Alex would make a nice play, kicking the puck to himself, beating some Spartans and poking it home.  But the Spartans would eventually pad their lead again, before fending off the Cads for the rest of the 3rd.

Due to the snowy weather there would be no 4th period.  Seemingly everyone was able to get home safely, though it was definitely tough at time.

And no, keeping up with the Blog is not easy.
