Shoot out win for Alec!

April 24, 2017. Wags Vs. Team Conquest
The fans were treated to a great playoff game. We had the stands packed with 7 fans.  General Manager Ed Waghorn, Grandpa Kuta, Grandpa Lopatka, Alec's Dad and sister, Mike Matker's Girl friend and a guy with a bad wing. Grandpa Kuta said, "This is better that watching the Blackhawks!" He was right, as both teams were flying and shooting like crazy, but both goalies were perfect until late in the second period when Tommy "Gramps" Zagorski.  Tom was the oldest guy on the ice that night because Dan Lopatka and Tony Letto were not in the lineup.  Tom got a pass

(Left to Right) Mike Matker, Tommy Z, Alec Paloumpis and the Kuta Brothers.

from Jason Kuta, (Score sheet said unassisted M&M Mike had a hand in the goal too) then avoided a goalie poke check that sent him head first over the goalie's back as he tucked the puck in for the only Wags goal in regulation.  That should have been the game winner but the referee gave Team Conquest a goal when  Alec made a save on a hard shot that went up and over his shoulder. The puck came to rest next to the post on the goal line.  Kevin "Smooth As" Glass went crashing into the post and drew a whistle as the net became dislodged. One referee said " no goal", the blind guy said "goal" after showing Alec where the puck came to rest.  He put it on the goal line. That tied the score with 21 seconds left to play in period 2.  A scoreless 3rd sent us to a shoot out where Alec stoned the first shooter. Mike "M&M" Matker scored to give Wags a lead.  Alec stopped the second shooter setting up the game winning goal by Jason "Bara" Kuta. He raced in and did a Kanner stop then went backhand high.  You can view that goal on Youtube at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7iO_5AoavE Or search Youtube for "Shoot out win by Ryan Kuta."
