This is the fortieth 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 regular article of Hockey News BPHL: Special Edition Vol: 2.21. Silver and Red matched up last Thursday and the normally competitive game that we've come to expect was nowhere to be seen. Silver scored early and often in the eventual rout of Red, winning by a final of 9 - 3. Everything was coming up Silver whether it be goal scoring, defense, or goal tending.
Likely a large contributing factor to the Silver win was the depth on the bench which allowed for three full, potent lines of forwards. A-A-Ron Martens was an unhealthy scratch, coming down with the Coronavirus earlier in the week. This led to a call-up of the emergency back-up goalie, who came in on extremely short notice and shined brightly between the pipes, saving several shots with his head. This unexpected performance easily earned the Silver backstop star of the game honors and the new traveling trophy (The Prestigious LA Ross Silver Helmet Memorial Trophy).
Update to a previous story line, New Mitch was actually hit with a one-game suspension and hence was missing from the line up against Red. He will likely be back on the ice tonight, unless head coach Jim DeRouchey is looking to send a message to the rest of the club and the league about how to play old-time hockey.
