NAHL Thanksgiving Day Classic

Postgame Celebration
Green took the “Drumstick” with a 12-9 win over Blue in the 25th Annual Thanksgiving Day Shootout at the “Doug” on Thursday morning. Blue jumped out to an early lead with Tom "Philby" Philbrick, brother Todd "Philby" Philbrick and CCHL call-up Phil " The Whistle" LaCasse pumping in the goals to give Blue a 7-4 lead after two periods. Green stormed back in the third with two timely goals by Clint "Eastwood" Cassavaugh to tie the score at 9-9 with five minutes remaining in the game. Some solid defensive work by the CCHL tandem of Matt “Boots” Boudrias and Bill "Hawkeye" MacDougall and solid goaltending by Ken "Don't Ya Love Em Madly" Bradley kept the Blue forwards off the board  for the rest of the game. Boudrias and MacDougall both scored late in the game to ensure Green’s victory. Todd "Philby" Philbrick took home the game MVP award for his play and his yearly presentation of spicy hot wings.

In other NAHL action; Mauve slipped by Magenta 6-5 and Clear stunned Copper 3-2.
