This is the thirty-ninth 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: 2.20. Silver gave Black their biggest challenge of the season since their first game loss to Gold. Silver jumped out to a sizable lead before Jeff "Iron Man" Hoggan took the game into his own hands, putting his team on his back and carrying them to victory. A few items of note, 9 goals is the lowest offensive output for Black with the exception of playing against a Billy Wilson-less Gold team. The 7 goals allowed is also a season high for Black, except for those two games where Red was credited with 8 goals (likely a Slattery input "error").
In other BPHL news, Red beat Gold in a shootout thanks to a superb effort of the subs from Silver - so in a way, Silver went .500 on the night.
In other Silver team news, the whole new attitude of one particular player has captured the attention of the entire league, especially the officials. Amidst piling up a whole new rash of penalty minutes in just the last couple games, some people are asking, is he just a bully? His reputation is one that scares the bejesus outta everybody. This young man has had a very trying sophomore season, what with the litigation, the notoriety, his subsequent deportation to Canada, and that country's refusal to accept him. Well, that's more than most 29 year-olds could handle. Yes of course we are talking about New Mitch. The news is out that Mark Marta put a personal bounty on New Mitch's head for tonight's game. That's $100 of his own money for the first guy that takes New Mitch out of the game. Marta may be disappointed to realize that New Mitch only plays on Mondays. Mark your calendars for February 17th.

Stars of the Game
1) Greg Gallow
2) New Mitch
3) Marv Haybale
Silver is back in action against RED tonight at RALSTON at 8:30 PM. These teams are as evenly matched as they come in the BPHL. It's anyone's game out on the ice tonight. It will likely come down to a couple key missed calls by the league's head official - who has forgotten his glasses for the entire season so far.
Remember, Dickie Dunn wrote this, so it's gotta be true
