With the weather getting colder it means it's time for long underwear... AND Winter Hockey here at Hockey Life.
The season has started fast and furious, with all the teams looking good and games being played tighter than usual in the Hockey Life seasons past. It seems that people take it a little more serious when you're playing for real team pride.
Coming off of a Summer season as the best goalie in the League Jordie Margison and his team AB Transport, are having a hard time finding their stride. While allowing 14 goals in two games, blame cannot land solely on the keepers back, as AB Transport has only been able to muster 3 goals. As any season beer league vet will tell you, it's hard to win a game with one goal.
Stepping up his game and making saves with everything he's got Brad Amberly has allowed only 5 goals in two games netting him the best GAA thus far. That being said his team has only been able to muster one win with him keeping them in the game. Surely things will turn around for CB Teez as they find their offensive stride together.
Number one overall draft pick Marc Corbeil has only been able to muster 6 points in the two games, leaving him in a tie with line mate Adam Klimowicz. Overall points leader and second overall draft pick Chris Alpaugh could not be reached for comment, so one was made up for him.
"Whose number 1 now Adam?"
In a shortened season before the mid winter re-draft, Precision Auto Works looks to be in playoff form. Keeping their heads in the game, pouring the pressure on and holding the sole undefeated title lead by the GM/Coaching expertise of Tommy "The Dream" Dydynski.
Two games in and a whole season to go. All the teams are looking good and keeping the pace of hockey more fast and furious than a Supra with a spoiler, spinners and glowing under lights.
Good luck to everyone and remember, to keep your stick on the ice and your head up in the corners.
