WINGS   4    BRUINS   4

Wings sub Denny scores his second goal of the game to put the Wings up 4-3 halfway through the final period.  Exactly four seconds later,

big Rob Rowling the Captain of the Bruins ties it up 4-4!  Chris Lidstrom, Johnny Bean and sub Paul Elsey Jr. also with Bruins markers.  Trevor Knight and Larry “School Boy” Rowe with the Wings middle markers.  For those of you who have wondered why I call Larry – “School Boy”, below is his plaque in the baseball HOF I visited last week.

 

HABS   2    FLYERS   0

Sting rookie sub goalie Rogers stands on his proverbial head as he blanks the Flyers in his Sting debut!  Captain Joey Reiss and Anthony Amato do the honors for the French guys.  No Flyers highlights.

HAWKS   2    SHARKS   1

All the scoring accomplished in the first period, as the top spot Hawks come out on top.  The league’s leading scorer and assist leader Brian Moore and Joe Robillard tally for the Hawks.  Shutout leader Brian Miller shined in nets!  Sub Rob Aughe with the lone Shark goal.  Fellow puck stopper – Mark Micolo for the Sharks with a great game in nets!  The Sharks successfully killed off four penalty’s in the game to the Hawks zero infractions.

SHARKS   5    WINGS   3

All this guy does is score!  He really doesn’t stand out – he just scores!  John Poolton with the trick for the Sharks!  Singles for Scott Leslie and Ian Axworthy.  Wings – Jeff Steiber, Trevor Knight and sub Steve “With a nod and a” Wink.  This was a penalty free game.

BRUINS    8    FLYERS   4

The Bruins light up the scoreboard as Rob Rowling records the trick!  Line-mate Steve Bayagich with the deuce.  Singles for Andy Farah and Paul Elsey Jr.  Johnny Bean with the hat trick assist.  Flyers – Charlie Eslinger, Jeff Funk and rookie subs Wegen and Hiltunan.

Since Jeff Funk scored again – time for another true Funk story.

On Thursdays I’m on the Habs and in the first game warmup our opponent the Wings are also warming up.
Out comes Funk in his Rangers jersey who he plays for and starts warming up and taking shots on our goalie!  I sidle up to him and say “Jeff you’re in the wrong rink!”  Ha ha!  More to come!

HAWKS   4    HABS   1

These Hawks just continue to win as they take a two point head start into the playoffs next week.  Brian Moore with a two goal game for the Hawks.  Singles for Joe Robillard and Tyler Teneyck.  Billy Reiss scores for the Habs.

Who was the number pick in the 2009 draft taken by the New York Islanders?

Hint – He is still active.

John Taveras – Just signed a 4 year contract extension with the Leafs.
