Hockey News! Special Edition Vol: 3.21

This is the 73rd 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 first 2021 article of Hockey News BPHL: Special Edition Vol: 3.21.  Silver team dropped another PRECIOUS METALS game last Monday night by a score of 8 - 13.  Gold rattled off nine straight goals to put Silver to bed early.  Silver took advantage of garbage time, tallying 8 goals before the final buzzer blast.  This drops Silver to 0-4-1 in PRECIOUS METALS games this season.  Hockey News! can only offer these words of encouragement, as Happy Gilmore's would-be-coach so eloquently put it, "Well, better luck next year!"

The PLARSHMT & OBMASLF were not awarded due to the lack of a standout player on the ice for Silver during the game.  Besides, trophies are for winners.  The Silver team roster was also extremely sparse with many starting their New Year celebrations a few days early.  Silver looks to get a few players back in January which will no doubt improve their chances of victory.  Silver was able to have a consolation prize as their belated Christmas bonuses arrived from the front office.

If this isn't enough to make some players show up, nothing is.

Don't forget to check out the archives of all your favorite Hockey News! articles that really capture the spirit of the thing over at the main 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.

Silver is back in action Monday, 04 January at RALSTON Arena at 10:00 PM.  Silver battles Teal to remain undefeated for all time.  Silver is bound to lose one to Teal, with their depleted roster and odds stacking against them, will it be tonight?  The oddsmakers think there may be a chance.  The only way to see it live is to come on down to the Ralston Arena, bring the kids!  We've got entertainment for the whole family.

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