Assadi Consulting inc battle back, but falter on late goal

(5)United Arms vs Assadi Consulting inc(3)

The Assadi Consulting inc are starting to look a lot more like themselves on Wednesday night, but it still wasn’t enough. After overcoming a two goal deficit and appearing to regain some of the swagger that wasn’t there early on in the season, they surrendered a late winning goal to N.Chiminian, and ultimately fell 4-3.The United Arms did what they do best, and that’s having everyone buy into playing a relentless styled game. There goals came because of hard work while making sure they go to the net where they picked up a couple of rebounds to beat P.Assadi. This contest could have easily gone either way with the Assadi Consulting inc failing to capitalise when the score was tied. Instead, it was the United Arms seizing the moment which keeps them on a roll so far this season.

Punishers squander late lead in shootout loss to Altius

(7)Altius vs Punishers(6) S.O

G.Chountalos scored the lone shootout marker, C.Flikas and A.Catino tallied very late, and the Altius shocked a Punishers team that thought they surely had it in the bag. Both those late goals happened when the Altius pulled their net minder for the extra attacker. It may happen on occasion a team scores late when playing without their goaltender for the equaliser, but  for it to happen twice, the Punishers will be feeling it for a while. Adding to the misery, the extra time was only fitting that G.Chountalos would win it for the Altius on a brilliant nifty move. Those were just two times during the game that can be looked at for the Punishers where they could have avoided a crash. But perhaps another moment will be looked at was in the first period where they rode a 3-0 lead only to let that slip away as well. Funny things happened during this encounter, but one things for sure, the Altius showed they believe in themselves no matter what to circumstances are.

Brewers cruise for easy win over RCGT Knights

(8)Brew Crew vs RCGT Knights(0)

Its never fun falling in an early hole. Only three minutes had gone by, and M.Maggiore along with D.Catalano made the score 2-0. Usually two things tend to happen when teams face these challenges. They either tend to bounce back or they find themselves in an even deeper hole with no light at the end of the tunnel. Unfortunately for the RCGT Knights, the road ahead was grim. However, that did really happen till the later stages of the second period. Plenty of time had gone by until a three goal surge by the Brew Crew put this contest in the books. A.Belanger scored twice in the final frame to complete his hat trick, and C.Muccino kept a clean sheet stopping all 18 shots his way. The RCGT Knights did floor a decent line up with some quality players. The problem is that it takes some time to develop chemistry when adding new faces unlike the Brew Crew, who definitely have the years of experience for playing together.

The SalumiVino player of the night goes to Nicko Chiminian of the United Arms. The game appeared to be headed for overtime, that was until the United Arms centre man decided matters late snapping a 3-3 tie.
