Slayers vs Cheapskates: W 3-1
A rare evening game turned out to be a bit on the crazy side with disallowed goals, dinged posts, missing ref whistles and a bundle of fans in the stands. This was the Slayers last regular season game and a win would reward the team with a by in the first round of the playoffs, the Presidents Trophy for the most points in the regular season and beer. Lots of beer. (I still feel ill). The Slayers jumped out to an early lead and was able to hold it together the rest of the game for the win. Dale made some key saves only allowing one past him. Landon, the Stone Wall allowed three goals and like Dale made some killer saves. One stand out save by SWJ that had the crowd roaring was a save on Blanchard who flicked a wrister at point blank range. The Cheapskates could not penetrate the Slayers zone with speed with most of their plays dissolving due to the grinding play of the Slayers. Great game and the Slayers hope to see the Cheapskates again in the playoffs.
Game Notes:
Goals: Drew-Fing-Barber, Kev (GW) and Scott. Helpers: Nimrod (about time), Richard and Mike
The Slayers welcomed back Kevin Kolb after missing a couple games due to illness. His left ear is still jacked up and he can not hear out of it so well. When asked if it affected his game he said, "What? Oh, no because I played on the left wing." MIAs Harper, Brian.
Goalies: Dale for the Slayers. Dale finished the regular season with an impressive 7 wins and only 2 loses. He posted one shut out. His goals against average is right at 2.50. Stone Wall was in the net for Cheapskates.
Refs: Kyle and Trevor

I didn't even know that was Will banging on the doorstep, there were so many of you guys around the net. I felt like I was in a rubber testing facility, but that's nothing new.
Props to Drew F-ing Barber for the first goal, I didn't see squat but they all count, right?
And I hope to see you guys in the playoffs, too. Game three I believe, if we take care of business in the first round. Fukeneh Slayers!!!
