(9)Left Wings vs Knights (3)

Left Wings hand Knights 9-3 thumping

For about two periods, the Knights can say that they held their own. However, once the final frame hit, it was all curtains for S.Sauk and his depleted line-up. The Left Wings did most of their scoring in the last fifteen minutes of play to run away with the match. During that span, G.Gaitanis scored back to back tallies to complete a hat trick as part of a five point performance. The Knights failed to give themselves a decent start when they still had enough energy. By giving up three first period goals, they just made it harder to try and keep the game close. S.Kalaydjian had a solid outing scoring twice in the loss.

(5)Horsemen vs Underdogs (6) O.T

Horsemen third period surge falls short to Underdogs

The Horseman put quite a third period charge to even the score and force an overtime period. And in hopes of feeding off the momentum, it was the Underdogs who had the final say. The match was ultimately decided when A.Khanafer scored three and a half minutes into overtime. The Underdogs had their up and down moments during the contest with a solid start where they opened up the game 3-1 after one period. M.Zarzour got the ball rolling striking twice early on. Even though it was a good push back-from the Horsemen, the losing side perhaps felt they deserved better. P.Sidhom was relentless accumulating four points that included a hat trick while his captain V.Pandza was productive collecting three points.

(1)Carnage vs Fat Cats(5)

Fat Cats score in different ways to oust Carnage

By scoring two power plays goals, one shorthanded marker, an even strength goal and finally one that fed an empty cage, the Fat Cats scored in every possible way on Wednesday night. The turning point came late in the first period when F.Atkinson struck first with a man short to put the Fat cats up 1-0. Then, only over a minute into the second period, J.Scalia doubled the lead on the power play. Carnage would eventually get on board to pull within two, but that was all that went through G.Sangiovanni. The win came with balanced offense involving five different goal scorers. One area that Carnage failed to take advantage of was their power play. The Fat Cats took an abundance amount of penalties early on and somehow managed to kill them off.

(4)Decepticons vs Kentucky Blue(6)

Kentucky Blue pair goals in every frame to beat Decepticons

By scoring twice in all three periods, the Kentucky Blue did just enough to edge out the Decepticons. Both sides traded two first period goals before a strong start to the second period put the Kentucky Blue up 4-2 .B.Travisano was the major reason why his club surged as the forward collected three straight points that included two key goals. Similar to what happened in the second period, the Kentucky Blue did the exact same thing in the third bagging two early markers. By that point, the game was out of reach with the Decepticons down by three. N.Delia did get the next marker for his second in the loss.

The SalumiVino player of the night goes to Ahmad Khanafer of the Underdogs. By being at the right place at the right time, A.Khanafer was able to provide the win for the Underdogs with the sudden death goal.

(2)Horsemen vs Mighty Drunks(4)

Mighty Drunks double up Horsemen with 4-2 victory

Thursday night saw O.Caillet make 33 saves allowing only two goals to lead his club over the Horsemen. Both sides expected a big challenge but it was the Mighty Drunks taking control for the large part. Nearly two full periods went by before C.Doulis of the Horsemen finally solved O.Caillet. Then, barley two minutes later, Y.Dube provided a two goal cushion for the Mighty Drunks heading into the third period. The Horsemen did pull within one once more but never got the chance to even the score. The win came with four different players scoring that included an offensive output-from a defenseman. M.Beaudry quarterbacked three out of a possible four passes.
