Hockey News! Special Edition Vol: 5.08

This is the 109th posting of the news articles from the Beer and Pretzel Hockey League written by the beat writer that covers the league.  He calls himself Dickie Dunn - his true identity is unknown.

Greetings hockey fans and welcome to another fantastic edition of Hockey News BPHL: Special Edition Vol: 5.08.  Silver and Double Snot Bubbles squared off last Thursday for their second game of the young season.

Silver was able to keep the game close through two periods before falling by a total of 4 - 7.  The Silver goaltender carousel continued with their league record 5th different goalie in seven games.  Mullendore paced Silver with two goals while Voss and Parrone added one apiece.  The loss kept Silver in the cellar for the time being, but do not expect them to stay there all season.  This team just has too much heart for that to happen.

The PLARSHMT & OBMASLF are not awarded in losses.  Alex Cooper worked his tail off in all facets of the game to win the Faceoff Chain for a fifth consecutive game.  This still does not make up for his previous absence and the team stated that his fine is still outstanding and starting to accrue interest.

Stars of the Game

1)  Christie Ballsack
2)  BJ Poleglaze
3)  Musk Beavis
