Deuces are Wild!

Canadian Boycott is Over!

Geno read about the Canadian shortage, so he decided to end his hold out.  (Our other Canadians are still AWOL)  Geno played a big part in the outcome, as he was one of 4 players to score 2 goals.  Tommy O started the scoring again on his first shift as he flipped one past the Anvil to give the Whites a 1-0 lead.  Geno got the score even when he fired a shot that ripped through the Brain's glove, then trickled in.  Tommy Z gave the

Reds the lead for a short time until his Brother, Back Hand Johnny, tied it at 2-2.  The Whites took the lead when Hacksaw hit Piggy Bank with a break out pass that Robby sent over to Thor, who buried it for the lead.  Bill "The Maestro" Conti tied it to end the second period at 3-3.  The Whites took the opening face off of the third period and TO scored his "Deuce" on a Tweedy turn over.  Back Hand Johnny scored his second goal a few seconds later to give the Whites a 5-3 lead, early in the final period.  TZ cut that dreaded 2 goal lead in half, when he picked up his second goal.  It looked like the Whites would hang on to a 5-4 lead, when that one eyed Canadian, who dragged himself off of the couch to save his homeland from disgrace, raced in, took a body slam from Brinks and tied up the game at 5-5.  The Meaningful score is being decided by the Duffer Rules Committee.  It is either 3-2 Whites, or 2-1 in favor of the Reds.  You see, TO is old enough to be meaningful, but he is not a dues paying member yet.  Tommy O has all of the qualities of a Duffer, except he is a little too fast.  The Goal Tending and Defense was outstanding.  Rich Storm, The Maestro, Tweedy and Frank did a fine job keeping the high powered Whites to 5 goals.  Stump lead the White defenders with help from Fruit Cake, The Bookie and The Terry the Terror.   Click Here to see the 2008 Stats
