6 Years Ago The King had a Hat Trick

I can’t remember anything from the game Friday.  I do remember singing along with Rich Storm’s new CD, “Friday Night Soundtrack.”  It is amazing how fast all of the Duffers learned the words to “The City of New Orleans”.  I sent out the following appeal for help on Wednesday and got some help:  “I started writing the newsletter and I can't remember anything that happened Friday. Who won?  Who scored?  Meaningful?”
The King’s reply:  “I can help. The King for the first time in his career scored a "Hat rick". He also skated the whole game and was looking to play another game.  Then He woke up.”
Doc’s reply:  “Who won? Blue (or maybe white)  Who scored? I got one for blues: Meaningful? It was to me.
Coughenour’s reply:  Uncle Bob scored on one of two breakaways.  Tattoo (formerly Gilbert) scored two tap in goals while sporting his new "unauthorized" Duffer Logo on his shoulder.  Miller lite scored at least one on Gary.  Stump  returned to the ice to play defense instead of referee.  Did Doc score?
   Tweedy beat Eddie early, but only once.  Beak took a pass from Thor, popped it into the air, then slapped it past Eddie for the meaningful win.  Wheezer checked Allen into the boards.  His feet were still pumping furiously as he hit the ice horizontally.  Non Hayward Duffers at Henrys saw a good clean fight near the door and promptly sang out Jerry, Jerry, Jerry!  The King made an executive decision to start planning a fully sanctioned Duffer trip to New Orleans for next season!  Count me in!

Harvey and Beak Dazzle Hayward Goalies
The Mayor of Hayward supplied us with 2 teen age goalies who were way to quick for their own good  One was heard complaining that Duffers were boring, Then Beak faked a slap shot and slid a slow wrist shot past him.  Ken blew a slap shot past him, while Tweedy blew one past the other goalie.  Harvey rolled a couple of shots past the White goalie and finished the night with 4 goals,  After Beak deflected two more past him, he said we were lucky.  Beak finished the night with 5 goals past the bored goalie.  Tweedy played 3 games on Saturday and 1 on Sunday.  His team lost the championship to the Hayward Muskies, when Mayor Duffy shut them out.
We had a great time in Hayward, but we lost the beer drinking contest.  We needed a few more drinkers to help us out.  We also lost the battle to stay under $200.  We needed 3 more guys to break even.  What did you learn in Catholic school?  When you are short of money, have a fund raiser.  We are planning a  Hayward Bowling fund raiser in June and a Hayward video sneak preview on April 14 at the Beak Deck.  Harvey’s dancing video will also be shown.  A fun Tax may be assessed if you have too much fun.  Beak’s wife is out of town that week end. 
If you are having trouble getting out for a road trip, get your lady signed up on Mrs. Beak’s bowling team.  It worked for Ken and Uncle Bob!

Eddie The Anvil made so many saves on Friday that he skipped the bar and went straight to bed.  That turned out to be a good move, because he would be called on to make another 100 saves in Peoria.  The Duffer Travel team roster included The Anvil, Beer-Nuts, Beak, Joe Jr., Koss, Dizzy and Mini-Wheezer. (Wheezer couldn't make it because he was getting fitted for a new $2000 set of golf clubs.  I hope he gets a Niblic and a Mashie for that price.)
Friday 4/06/01
Tweedy rushed the puck in front of his own net and was floored by his own defensemen, Klinger.  The puck eventually ended up on Fruit bread's stick and Fred gave the Blues an early 1-0 lead.  Thor and Beak knocked each other silly a little later on.  No one can explain how a right winger and a left winger on the same team can run into each other.  One of the Blues defensemen tried to rush the puck in front of his own net and Beak poked it over to Thor Miller who fired a shot at the Anvil.  Eddie made the save, but the puck magically rolled away from him and meandered toward the goal line.  The Anvil swung his goalie stick and swatted it into his own net to tie the score.  The next shift, the Miller Magic continued as Zagnut fired a clearing pass off of Thor's shin pad. That pass caromed right into the net to give the Whites a 2-1 lead. The Anvil is now on suicide watch.  It looked like Fruit cake tied it up when Zagnut illegally slammed Stump into the boards.  The goal was disallowed at the bar when a vote was taken.  Klinger, Frank, King, Tweedy, Stump, Beak, Johnny, Beavis, Rich Storm and Magoo all voted to disallow the goal.  The Blues only had Tommy, Uncle Bob, Mini Wheezer and Super Dave to try to get Fred a goal.  It pays to go to the bar.  The Whites also won the meaningless contest with goals by Tweedy and Johnny Z.
