Assadi Consulting Inc ride strong start, Y.Gazura nets hat trick for the win
(8)Assadi Consulting Inc vs Left Wings(3)
From-the drop of the ball, the Assadi Consulting Inc came out hard applying pressure, and after just over two minutes in, Y.Gazura drew first blood. The Assadi Consulting Inc continued to press as the fore check was to much for the Left Wings to handle. It looked like the Assadi Consulting Inc were more determined getting balanced contributions although Y.Gazura did lead in the goals department striking three times for a hat trick. The Left Wings had some good moments in the second period when A.Perrault strung two quick goals together to cut the deficit in half. And rather than building off it, the opposite happened instead. M.Tvaronas and Y.Gazura each scored before the frame ended, and the Assadi Consulting Inc carried a comfortable 6-2 lead heading into the third period. Not much happened-from there on as both teams knew the fate of this outcome. P.Nakhle capped it off with his second, and P.Assadi was sound facing 25 shots for the win.
P.Karvouriaris continues to shine, riffles 4 more to his collection of goals
(7)Punishers vs United(2)
P.Karvouriaris continues to eat his Wheaties as the sharp shooter finds his target four more times in what was another Punishers convincing win on Wednesday night. United fell victims to a well oiled machine that seems to have all the right moving parts. As the game got underway, the Punishers sent a strong early message that this game was theirs for the taking. P.Karvouriaris, J.Fidrilis and M.Mavroudis all scored, and the Punishers set the stage riding a 3-0 first period lead. Even with United falling that early, they never really made much up for it despite bagging two third period goals when the game was put out of reach. Maybe if they had a magic formula on how to contain P.Karvouriaris, things may have been possibly different, but highly unlikely for how well balanced the Punishers are anyway, especially with a C.Gingras in your line up. M-A Haber, J.Tremblay and A.St-Denis connected on both goals for United, who will need to address some lingering issues if they plan on competing with solid opponents.
The SalumiVino player of the night goes to Peter Karvouriaris. While this sentence may look like a carbon copy of last weeks player of the game, its actually not. Karvouriaris slowed down just a little, scoring 4 instead of 5 goals to earn once more the player of the night.
