Slayers Kickoff Spring Season vs Old Dawgs: Slayers 7 Dawgs 5




Just as the last drop of the champagne was sucked out of the cup, your division 2 champions hit the ice against the Old Dawgs Tuesday night. The Slayers, like the the Old Dawgs were skating a short bench due to injuries, travel and the flu. The game was a high scoring affair despite each team having just a couple subs on the bench. The Slayers jumped to a 6-2 lead in the 2nd period, but sat back a bit in the 3rd. With the hard determined play of Brit Eaton the Dawgs climbed back into the game and was within 2 goals late in the 3rd period. But the Slayers scored their 7th goal to seal the victory. Both goalies had made some great saves. Most of the goals were from sweet shots or hard play in and around the crease.

Goals:
Tommy 1
Will 1
Scott 3
Dan 2

Assists:
Tommy 1
Will 2
Scott 2
Dan 1
Drew 1

Game Notes: Dingo took a high stick to the upper lip in the 2nd period and left the game. He missed just one shift, Drew Barber sat in the box to feel shame. Old Dawgs signed Adam Howell for the Spring 08 Season. Adam brings hustle and a good scoring touch. Paul Wilson was the net minder for the Dawgs and with Dale out with the flu Darrin Ferguson played in goal for the Slayers. Thanks Darrin. Slayers were without Mike, Cory, Brian, Richard and Dale. Dawgs were without Stan, Henry, Jim, Spencer and Frank.
