Hockey News! Special Edition Vol: 3.07

This is the fifty-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 the HALLOWEEN SPOOKTACULAR article of Hockey News BPHL: Special Edition Vol: 3.07.

Silver made the most of their home ice advantage Monday night, getting the win in regulation against Red in the second game of the home and home series, but it wasn't without some drama.  Despite getting out to an early lead, Red managed to score a few using some kind of voo-doo magic.  There was nothing to the level of skating around the ice calling Silver goalie's wife a dyke in order to distract him into getting kicked out of the game, but it was close.

Red managed to take a one goal lead at 7 - 6 late in the third period, again leaving Silver no choice but to claw their way back to a tie game with hardly any time remaining.  Silver kept the grittiness going until the final horn sounded, but not before Jeff Harris netted the game winner with 13 seconds left.

The Prestigious LA Ross Silver Helmet Memorial Trophy and the Obscure Bryan "Mario" Alexander Silver Lancers Fedora were unofficially awarded to Jeff Harris for getting Silver off the shootout loss slide.  This week's Ag Player Silver Spotlight is bringing you not a specific player, but what will be flashing across the milky ice during their next game.  That's right, Silver stepped up their uniform game and got some new "alternate" jerseys that they will likely end up wearing for all the games since they are so sick.  Matching bags, bag tags, warmup pants/jackets, and team sweats are likely to follow.
