Green Streak

The powerful Green Machine has made it four in a row against rival Blue. Blue seems unable to come up with any answers to stop Green who rolled to an easy 9-2 victory. Last night marked the return of two time and reigning MVP Dunc "Coach" Walsh. The critics who questioned the league's choice of Walsh as MVP were silenced last night as "Coach" scored the hat trick. Walsh, the swing-man on the front line last night, meshed seamlessly with the line of Tillotson, Todd Philbrick and Rosatto as well with the line of Luker, Bergault and Rudz. "He can play any position and play with anyone AND he brings his lunch pail out there every shift" , said Dave "Tilly" Tillotson, who is Dunc's identical cousin and he too had a hat trick last night. "I've worked out hard all fall to get ready for the season", said Walsh. "Nobody told me that it started a month ago", he added.  Last night also marked the return of Mike "Hipshake" Farrelly to the line up. "Hipshake" was rehabbing from  his ordeal in North Korea. "I had been suffering in silence after I returned to the States. Few people know what it's like to cheat death and come back from the brink. Many people doubted my story which also made it difficult to fit back into society. One guy who supported me through all of this was Mark Rudz. He knows because he was there. I would wake in the middle of the night from nightmares of Poon and Tang sitting on my face. I couldn't breathe. My doctor prescribed me Atrex which has helped with the paranoia. It does have some side effects such as: bleeding gums, hemorrhoids, itching and flaking, bad breath, gas, aching joints, trouble urinating, slow skating, hands of stone, poor vision on the ice, bad decision making with the puck and suicidal thoughts  between periods. It did cause an erection that lasted more than four hours. I did not call my doctor however, I let my wife take care of it. I'm just happy to be back in the line up. I thought this day would never come", said Farrelly.  Walsh and Farrelly both earned first star of the game honors. Ryan Brandt was named second star of the game and Kenny "Rebel Without  A Rebound" Dean was named third star after stopping all but two of the four shots he faced last night. Green has added to their league lead while Blue has dropped down to six place.

The Great One!

This week in the CCHL saw The Windmill crush Cimo's 9-2. The Mill rebounded from their only loss last week to improve to four and one. Number one pick Pat Lacasse led the way with a hat trick and brother Nick and Bill "Hawkeye" MacDougall each added a pair of goals.  Cimo's got goals from Phil Lacasse and Mike Russell.  Injuries have a played a huge role in Cimo's poor start to the season. Losing also played a big part to their Oh and five season.
In game two this week, BWW and Cheers played to a five all tie. After and OT and a shoot out no one was able to break the stalemate.  Corey "The Cockroach" Laroche and Tim "The Timinator" Walsh each potted a pair of goals for Cheers. Former LA King Mike Richards had two goals for B2W.  Cheers has gone to the left wing lock which has allowed them to give up fewer goals than they used to.  Captain Tim Walsh has stressed team defense and it has proven successful for Cheers. "Our wide-open style became our Achille's Heal" said Walsh. "We know now that defense wins in the new CCHL".
