Popped Groins & CCHL Plays Full Slate!

Re-enactment of Simpson's groin pop.

For the first time in four weeks the CCHL returned to the ice for a full slate of games. The New England weather finally cooperated as all four squads were able to lace them up this week although not all players were in attendance. Cimo's goaltender Ryan "Homer" Simpson re-aggravated a wonky groin playing against the Bruins alumni team in a charity event and has been shutdown for the remainder of the season. Simpson's status for next season has yet to be determined by team officials although many sources believe this could be career threatening. In his place will be late season call up Andrew Proulx who made a name for himself last season filling in for Cheers goaltender Mark Crowley and backstopping the Cheers squad all the way to the finals. Cimo's will be looking for a similar run from the young, but experienced net minder.

That being said when this weeks slate of games began it was a debut to forget for Proulx as BWW hammered Cimo's by a score of 20-5. Corey "Corey" Laroche scored a league wide season high nine goals in the win as Corey "The Other Corey" Cotnoir added four with Jack "The Ripper" Mullen netting a hat trick. Both squads seemed to be shorthanded with Cimo's having 7 skaters to BWW's 8 which proved to be the difference in the blowout. In Tuesday's tilt it was a different story with Windmill squeaking by Cheers by a score of 3-2. Mike "Tricky Dick" Richard potted a pair for the 'Mill with Phil "The Whistle" Lacasse netting one as well. Cheers received goals from Captain Tim "Timinator" Walsh and JP Edes while Mark Crowley made many highlight reel saves between the pipes.
