Goal Tending Returns!

Stump and Tweedy Stifle the Outrageous Scoring

Stump and Tweedy took over for The Brain and The Anvil and held the high scoring Duffers to 1 goal in a period and a half!  The last 4 games saw 62 goals fly into the nets!  (That is 15.5 goals per game See Stats page)  Stump lost his shut out late in the first when TZ slipped a backhander past him into the far corner.  Tweedy made that goal stand up until the 6:08 mark of the second period, when T&A slapped one in to tie the game at one.  It looked like the score would be 1-1 entering the third period, but the negative part of the Bobka Factor came into play.  

The Bookie and Mini Wheezer show some love

With 10 seconds left in the period, Fruit Cake got tired and headed for a line change while Hacksaw and Backhand Johnny were heading into the zone, with only the Maestro back on defense.  JZ feathered a pass over to Hacksaw, who fluttered a hypnotic shot at Tweedy that crossed the goal line as the buzzer sounded.  Klinger replaced Fred of the final 4 seconds, then came back and swore at Him for giving him a minus.  The Third period had a little more scoring, as T&A and Brinks solved Tweed with a couple of change ups to give the Whites a 4-1 lead.  TZ stormed back and beat Stump twice on one shift to get the Reds within 1, but Backhand Johnny fooled everyone with a forehand shot that eluded Tweedy to make the score 5-3.  TZ got the Reds to within one with his 4th goal of the game to make it 5-4 late in the final period.  In the closing minute, Geno raced down the right side and fired a pass to a streaking Maestro, who was able to deflect it into the top shelf for the game tying goal.  5-5  There was some Good Friday drama , as Mini Wheezer was suffering the ill effects of 40 day and 40 nights without beer or chocolate.  He was in a foul mood, as he had several run ins with the Bookie, Fat Terry and V-Man.  He was spotted at the Wolves game Duffer outing Saturday night counting the hours until Lent ended at midnight.  The Chocolate bunnies in his daughter's Easter Basket were missing several body parts.

Quote of the Night


After the opposition  fired numerous fruitless shots at Tweedy for 2 straight minutes, Frank said  "You Guys really Suck"

Whites won The Meaningful game 2-0, and went on to take the Wild Wing Win too!
