Tweedy Bounces Back!

Romeoville, IL September 18, 2015  Attendance: 24

Tweedy bounced back to avenge his opening day loss, but I can't tell you who scored the winning goal.  I sent a plea by e-mail to find out "Who scored the winning goal?"  No one replied, so I'll give it to him.  Here is what I do remember:
The Whites lit The Anvil up for 4 goals in the first period. Cup Cake and Drago scored early and Berserk scored 2 more before The Anvil digested the Crown Royal. The Czar beat Tweedy late in the period to make it Whites 4, Reds 1.  Eddie's son DeJesus finally solved Tweedy after many unsuccessful

Harvey is going to Detroit!

attempts. Birdman Dan beat Tweedy to make it 4-3 going into the third period.  Then it happened, No one* scored the game winner for the Whites late in the game to give the Whites a 5-3 lead.. The Czar scored his 2nd goal a minute later, then Mazurk killed the game and his popcorn sales by icing the puck in the closing seconds.

* No One claimed the game winning goal by press time.

Memorable Moments:

Many Duffers paid their $100 dues, if you were not one of them, You are late!
We had a nice turnout at the Kilt and we were given a 20% just for being handsome hockey players.   

Perfect Attendance is down to 16:

Doc, Birdman Dan, Tommy Z, Maestro Bill, Beak, Bill BTW, Anvil, Barron, Boris, Commander Ken, Steve Hammer, Crash Terry, Czar, Fruitcake, Greg Z and Tweedy
