Hockey News! Special Edition Vol: 2.17

This is the thirty-sixth 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 mediocre article of Hockey News BPHL: Special Edition Vol: 2.17.  It's been awhile since the last article and Silver team has played three games during that span.  The last two games were fairly uneventful and the team's top player(s) didn't feel the need to play - taking advantage of the soft back to back games against Teal by taking a well deserved vacation.  Silver won handily with their eyes closed (it would seem) by scores of 9 - 5 and 10 - 3.  The first game was a nail-biter that went down to the last seconds with Silver prevailing by a score of 4 - 3.

The game was nearly closer than that as Head BPHL Official, Mark Harral had a rare moment of bad judgment, calling a goal for Red that clearly never crossed the goal line.  Obviously he had a good look at the play, standing near the far blue line, but sometimes even the best make mistakes.  The good thing is, the BPHL officiating crew's motto is always, "Get the call right."  After several minutes of discussion and replay review, the goal was taken off the board and ended up keeping Red down by just enough.  Big kudos to the BPHL camera crews for getting the right angle to show what really happened in the Silver net area.

Don't forget to checkout the archives of all your favorite Hockey News! articles over at the blog site www.ddunnwrotethis.blogspot.com.  Keep in mind that the perfect accessory for the man in your life, is a season ticket to Silver team's games.

Stars of the Game
1) Mark Harral
2) Asian Scorekeeper
3) Brian Maher

Silver looks to get another revenge win in the next edition of the PRECIOUS METALS game tonight against their bitter, Gold-colored rivals at RALSTON at 9:45 PM.  Silver looks to extend their 5 game unbeaten streak, which started with a tie against, you guessed it, GOLD.

Remember, Dickie Dunn wrote this, so it's gotta be true
