Thor Scores a Tainted Goal!

Romeoville, IL
December 30, 2011

Attendance: 29

Another Great Turn Out!
Our regular Goalies were AOL (Away On Leave).  They were not AWOL, because they had permission from Stump, the Duffer's Goalie in Chief.  Stump made the call to Tweedy and Jimmy the Rook. The Rook had a short tryout a few weeks ago and has been waiting anxiously for "The Call". Jimmy the Rook was doing great in his Duffer Début and had a 6-5 lead half way through the 3rd period.  He made a great save on a hard shot from Rags.  He decided to hold on to the puck and get a line change 

Jimmy the Rook found out life is not always fair, but he had fun in his Duffer debut. 

and a face off.  He flipped the puck to the face off circle and took a drink while waiting for the face off.  Much to his surprise, Thor took the puck and started shooting at him until he scored while the Reds were missing their forward line.  Thor said, someone said, "play on, so I started shooting until I scored and tied the game." The Anvil would have given him a blocker sandwich if he tried that on him, but the Rookie was just happy to be playing, so he said nothing and let Beak file a protest at Wild Wings. The Whites went on to score 3 more unanswered goals in the closing minutes to steal a 9-6 meaningless win from the rookie. The Reds took the Meaningful contest with goals from Beak and Tom "TO" O'Connor.  TO's goal was assisted by Geno and Beak.  Terry "Crash" Nance had a nice goal when he gloved a clearing pass then rifled a shot that beat Tweedy.  Greg Z scored his second Duffer goal and was told not to celebrate anymore.  First Duffer goal, OK, but after that act like you've done that before. Nick scored a goal playing center for the Reds.  Tom "T&A " Ambrosia scored the first White Goal when he took a pass from Stump at the blue line and fired a shot through a crowd that the Rookie never saw. Stump scored a goal later in the second period. Stretch's son, AJ and Lil Thomas had 2 goals each. Tommy Z, The Czar and Rags added goals for the Whites.

Memorable Moments

Thor scored a power play goal when he took advantage of a 5 on 2 man advantage.  Beak roofed an incest goal on his son

that went through his 6 hole.


Two Meaningful Goal Scorers celebrate at Wild Wings.  Reds also won at BWW 7-6.

Tweedy's 6 year old daughter, Audrey, had the quote of the night when he came home after sweating out a hard earned Duffer win.  She said, "Dad, you smell like the swamp at Brookfield zoo."

We only had 1 beer, honest. We had one for each goal we scored, we will never be over served using that formula.

Dan's daughter Audrey told him that he smelled like the swamp at Brookfield Zoo. I guess that's how goalies smell to a 6 year old.

Was T&A in Animal House?

In the 2000's, two more "holes" were added to the hockey lexicon to define the underarm areas pucks can sometimes sneak through. The six hole is between the stick arm and the body, while the seven hole is between the glove arm and the body. Even though they are two separate "holes" both are sometimes referred to as "the seven hole."

Goals that go through holes 5, 6, or 7 are often considered to be the result of poor goaltending, or "soft" goals.
