The threat of bad weather may have caused many Duffers to stay home last week.  We were forced to play with only 2 forward lines and 3 defensemen on each team!  The bonus of  low attendance is MBPD. (More Beers Per Duffer)  With Brinks in Florida, Beak made a bid for MVP by bringing in the Strohs.  If everybody had thrown caution to the wind and made it to the rink, we barely would have had 1 beer each.
The game featured great goaltending by The Anvil and the Brain.  neither goalie gave up a meaningful goal despite great setups by Tweedy, Tommy, Johnny and By the Way, Bill.  Thor had the Anvil down and out, but he couldn't get his shot up.  On one occasion, Eddie was flat on his back when Thor shot him in the bottom of his goalie skates.  Our veteran goalie analyst, Stump, who has made thousands of saves, said he had never made or seen a save like that.  Tommy Zagnuts got the only 2 pucks past the Brain.  Tweedy fired one off of the post that ruined the Anvil's shut out.  Blue Ball Bill scored the second goal for the Whites to give them a 2-2 meaningless tie.  If you stayed home because your lady saw the freezing rain forecast, you missed

Brain, Beak, Hacksaw, Thor, Blue Ball Bill, Johnny Back Hand, Tommy Zagnuts, Alien, Klinger, Knarf, Beer Nuts, Mini Wheezer, Magoo, Hansen Brother, Sanchez, Tweedy, Thor, Fruitcake and Cup Cake
The only Duffer known to have a good excuse was Brinks, he was on his way to watch the Avalanche in Tampa Bay Florida.
*John "Magoo" Landry scored that mystery goal last week.

Reminder: Please register your party intentions on line so that Wendy will have plenty of Jello Shots at the Duffer Christmas party on February 7.
