(2)Chiefs vs Brewers (7)

Brewers blast Chiefs with big first period

It didn't take long for the Brewers to strike early and often. They raced to a 4-1 first period lead and coasted to an easy victory over the Chiefs. A.Benedetto could be excused-from taking some of the blame for the lopsided frame. He had little support with the Brewers finding too much time and space to beat him. T.Fernando scored twice during that span and later added his third on the power play late in the second period. The Chiefs, despite a poor start showed some life on two quick goals but weren't able to build on it.

(3)Templars vs Devil Dawgz(2)

F.Cloutier late goal lifts Templars to 3-2 win over Devil Dawgz

F.Cloutier's goal with only two minutes remaining was the difference marker for the Templars on Friday night. The Devil Dawgz seemed well set for a better result after grabbing a 2-1 lead early in the third period. But some mishaps in the last fifteen minutes returned as they let their grip on the game slip away. The Templars responded almost immediately to level and eventually took it thanks to Cloutier. C.Muccino and M.Trivisonno gave their club every chance possible to prevail. Both net minders were solid and determined to win the game, but it was C.Muccino getting the slight edge over his counterpart.

(4)Pylons vs Bramabulls(5)

Pylons fall to Bramabulls after late push

Playing catch up hockey caught up with the Pylons on Friday night. The Bramabulls played with a ton of urgency early on which put themselves in the driver's seat riding a 4-0 lead. The Pylons were simply flat and unprepared to start the match. They did survive the onslaught by finding their game as it progressed. Eventually, they battled back with the help of M.Salerno's two goals and T.Settino's late marker that pulled his club within one. The problem was that there was only 36 seconds left on the clock. S.Ruggiero snapped the winner while M.Maggiore scored two goals that included a big shorthanded marker.

(5)The Family vs National(7)

National outduel Family in high scoring affair

National may be the cream of the division but the Family gave them a real run on Friday night. The pace never really slowed down between the two sides. M.Pinheiro put National in front 2-1 on two first period goals and Reginald Morne duplicated his captain's efforts in the second for a 4-3 lead. Still, the Family hung in there making their opponent work hard till the very end. It took Nationals big guns to come through in the third period to decide matters. Already with a pair of goals, M.Pinheiro completed his hat trick. S.Laplante riffled a pair during that span while O.Valiquette collected his fourth assist of the night. As for the Family, P.Defanti had a productive game accumulating three points that included two goals.

The SalumiVino player of the night goes to Teron Fernando of the Brewers. In a convincing 7-2 win over the Chiefs, T.Fernando sparked much of the offense finishing his night on a hat trick.
