PLAYOFFS – WEEK TWO 

FLYERS   3     BRUINS   1

Both teams play a very good and entertaining game!  Trevor Wrobel scores twice for the Flyers.  Scott Kostescich with their final goal.  Brian Miller stood tall in nets.  Now this is funny!  After being shutout in their previous two games,  Jimmy “Jets” Galloway pregame tells his teammates whoever scores their first goal, he well grant free Jets pizza for a year!  Guess who scores the Bruins only goal?  You got it!  Jimmy!  Talk about protecting your investment – Lol!  Ward Peterson voices his displeasure and receives a minor unsportsmanlike penalty in the final period.   

HABS   6    HAWKS   3

Center Brian Moore was everywhere this game, as he records the tour du chapeau!  He’s been on fire this playoffs!  Jeff “Marine” Steiber with the deuce.  Billy Reiss also with a goal.  Centerline resident, sub goalie Mark Lusczki was strong in nets.  The Robs – Olmstead and Girouix and Stanley Cup winning coach Mike Keenan lookalike(See Picture Below) Mike Riddle score for the Hawks.  Billy Reiss and Anthony Amato of the Hawks both roughing minor infractions.  

 

Coach Kennan says: “Sometimes you make calls that are controversial.  It’s called coaching!  

 WINGS   7    SHARKS   5

Zach Wagner scores his first of three goals 40 ticks into the game, as the Wings prevail in an old fashioned western shootout!  Singles for Terry Boyette, John Cornish, Steve Bayagich and Rich Artymovich.  The Sharks spread out the scoring – Nate McNaughtry, Craig Bastuba, Mike Nalepa, Waz Sarweh and sub Brian Barker.  This was a penalty free game.   

HABS   5    WINGS   4

The second place Habs win their fourth out of four games in the playoffs, in a very entertaining and statement game!  The opportunist Billy Reiss with the hat trick!  Jeff Steiber and Greg Stacy with singles.  Scoring machine Zach Wagner with the natural hat trick for the Wings.  Rich Artymovich with their initial goal.  There were a couple leader dogs comments mentioned during the game, in reference to two guys in striped shirts.  Just saying.     

SHARKS   4    BRUINS   3

The Sharks do all their scoring in the first period as they split on the day.  Mike “Padre” Nalepa with a two goal game.  Singles for Kenny Kluz and sub Brian Barker.  Goaler Joe Polizzi with a strong game in nets.  Paul Violassi, Mark Micolo and Jimmy Galloway tally for the 0-4 Bruins.  No trips to the sin bin for either team.  

FLYERS  7    HAWKS   2

This very formidable first place Flyers team continue to roll, as the SAM line of Scott Kostesich(4 Assists), Angry Joe(Hat Trick) and Rob “The Full Monty” Montgomery(2 & 2) total 11 points in the game!  Trevor Wrobel and Jamie Smith(SH) also score.  Goalie Brian Miller with a 12 save game.  Paul Elsey Jr. with both Hawks goals.
