(5)SBS Trashers vs Smooth Sailors(7)
M.Testolina third period hat trick leads Smooth Sailors past SBS Trashers
M.Testolina notched a third period hat trick to break open a close game leading his team to victory. The SBS Trashers found themselves in an early bind due to their goaltender R.Pampena showing up late. Unable to get a proper warm up going, Pampena gave up two quick goals and the SBS Trashers just dug themselves in an even deeper hole. To their credit, they did manage to eventually even the score when F.Gentile tied the game early in the second period. That momentum however was cut short in less than two minutes with the Smooth Sailors captain J.Palmitano regaining the lead. Then, the M.Testolina show took place in the final frame, and the Smooth Sailors were able to escape with the victory thanks to his fourth goal of the contest.
(4)Fatal Demons vs Legacy(10)
Legacy pulls away in second half of the game
Considering how the game was going, the Fatal Demons felt content staying neck in neck with a superior hockey team. That was up until the second portion of the game happened. Once Payam Assadi scored on the power play to make it 3-1, the night was done for the Fatal Demons. Eight out of their ten goals all came as of that point on. Unfortunately for the Fatal Demons, they just couldn't stop the bleeding. Payam Assadi led all teammates in the goal scoring department riffling four past R.Ranieri. Next in line saw S.Robineault bury a pair while four other players took turns finding the back of the net.
The SalumiVino player of the night goes to Matthew Testolina of the Smooth Sailors. With the game on the line, the Smooth Sailors spark plug went on a third period rampage bagging three out of his four goals.
