Third period blitz does in Left Wings
(10)Punishers vs Left Wings(3)
For two straight periods, the Left Wings were in good shape despite trailing 3-2. They hung in their keeping the game fairly close heading into the third period. However, they weren't able to continue that dig in mentality for one more frame in order to give themselves a chance. Instead, the Punishers simply overwhelmed them on a barrage of goals winning the final stretch by a 7-1 landslide. Leading the charge up front were your usual suspects with P.Karvouriaris and C.Kakivelis collecting four points each. J.Fidrilis and C.Gingras each hit their targets twice. The Punishers also benefited with some dept scoring, something that they will need once the games start to matter a little more. For now, things are rolling along just fine for a well oiled machine.
Armadillos find their groove after scoreless first period
(1)United Arms vs Armadillos(4)
Both sides understood the importance of getting that first goal, especially after a scoreless opening period. The Armadillos would eventually get traction striking first and second to carry a 2-0 lead after two periods. At the very least, the United Arms had to get that next tally which they did but couldn't even the score. C.Stavriadis went flawless in net up until that point and remained that way after giving up only one tally. Eventually, the Armadillos would take over to put the game to rest on a pair of insurance markers. K.Kuczmarski and T.Bozinakis had their say collecting two points each. The United Arms revamped the United's roster entering tonight's game. They had to go up against last seasons winners which came as an immediate tall order. Despite dropping their encounter, the United Arms made the Armadillos work for every inch of their game in order to capture the win.
The SalumiVino player of the night goes to Costa Stavriadis of the Armadillos. Always look to your net minder in a close low scoring affair. Stavriadis was able to deliver allowing only one third period goal which enabled his club to play with the lead.
