Mayhem in Mokdong! Manglers Massively Mangled !

<----- Manglers please read. Spirits were high on Sunday morning for the opening day of the Chiefs Fall Tourney. Spirits were also at high levels on the breaths of many as they laced up! The TommyHawks seemed calm as they got ready. The Manglers were trying to get fired up with a few tunes and trying not to give up hope on their #1 pick showing up. With the TommyHawks one man short and the Manglers 2 men short, the game got underway with the drop of the puck by veteran Chief, Jeremy Sands. It was a quick paced game and the T-Hawks came out on top quicky. With a three shot warm up, Rene and his team would quicky be down with little hope of making a comeback. Tommy, did not see many shots however most of the ones he did, he made some pretty good stops. The T-Hawks got the puck out of their zone quicky and the Manglers seemed to almost enjoy keeping it in theirs.. that being said the horn went and the TommyHawks were victorious, taking game one 11-3
Three Stars of the game
3 Steve'o
2 Tommy
1 Line 1.2.3 for the team in White

Game two of the Sunday double header saw The Manglers vs the Smelly Tacos. (I still don't understand that name) The Manglers were down in spirit however they came out quick in this game. They appeared warmed up and took a quick 4-0 lead. That lead would not last long. The stick of Aaron Geddes was fast, and working hard. He netted an amazing 6 goals.
This was a tough fought battle and was the best game yet in the tourney. Tom Daniel's one timer fed from Karl was a beauty! The Geddes, off the faceoff goal still haunts Rene, T-bone's broken stick (would have been in) and Jack's twisty turns were all great highlights. This game was also the most physical game so far. Let it be noted that CLAY took the first penalty. He's usually good for one, haha.
*just a note to all...the tourney does see an increase in speed. Keep your heads up.
When Sands finally called the game, it was the Manglers 7 and the Tacos 11. Guess the Manglers should have just went to 7-11 and drowned their losses.
I think most enjoyed the first day of play. Having the score clock was a really nice addition. For any who think two games is easy, it's not. But for any who think it's too much, it's not. It's still fun.
Three stars are:
3 Rene "the puck stopped here a few times" Boucher
2 Tom Daniel
1 Aaron geddes
See you all on Sunday. Good luck to all!
Oh, and we've taken Rene's pads to the lab to see if the stolen pucks are stuck in there somewhere.

The final yesterday was 12-7. We scored with about 10 seconds left and Jeremy called the game.

The scorer thought there had been a goal, because Jeremy whistled the play, but I had made the save and it went to Cory, who gloved it to the corner. That's why they went to center ice and the scorer thought it was a goal... The score was actually 11 - 7...

Wow, I got a third star!!! Who needs the glasses??? I had a lot of fun, but I wish I could have stopped 5 more of those shots on net...

No worries, it's a bad game. You get to extract revenge that's the beauty of this tournament. You should've been there last night to see Marc "Andre" MacDonald in action. I think you have some competition.
