| Game 7! |
Despite the cold bite in the air the Doug heated up Thursday
night as Blue and Green faced off in game 6 of the NAHL Eastern Conference Best
of 7 Championship in which Green held a three to two lead going into the game.
The teams played fast paced, solid, scoreless hockey for two periods. Blue took
the lead early in the third when Dunc
"Coach" Walsh lit the lamp on a twisted wrister that beat goalie Ken
"Rebel without a Rebound" Dean to the glove side and found the back
of the net. Green tied the game midway through the period on a slick passing
play at the crease from Dave "The Younger Tilly" Tillotson to Todd
"Philby" Philbrick that beat goalie Ken "Don't Ya Love Em
Madly" Bradley for the tap in. Later in the period Walsh knocked the puck
over the goal line in a tight scramble in front of the Green net that put Blue
in front 2-1 for his second goal of the game. Both goalies were sharp
throughout the game and Ken "Don't Ya Love Em Madly" Bradley was
tested often as Green tried desperately to tie the game.
Game 7 will be played next
Thursday at 9:30 PM at the Doug. Tickets will be on sale at the Doug Box Office
beginning Monday morning. League officials feel the game will be sold out by
noon!
In the NAHL Western Conference
Championship Magenta tied the Best of Three series at one with a 5-4 victory
over Copper.
