Hockey News! Special Edition Vol: 5.06

This is the 107th 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 super edition of Hockey News BPHL: Special Edition Vol: 5.06.  Silver and Black met for the second time this season on Thursday, 27 November.  Black brought the same full effort and roster that they always do, but Silver was ready this time.  After a lopsided first period, Silver fought back in the second period to knot the score at 5 - 5, getting the equalizer on a Mullendore power play goal at 11:55 of the 2nd period. After exchanging a couple goals apiece in the 3rd, the crazy, high-scoring, back and forth game, ended tied after regulation at 7 - 7.

After Black scored and Coop missed in the first round of the shootout, Silver goalie stoned the final two Black attempts and Bednarz and New Mitch led Silver to the shootout victory!

Zach Voss - 3 G, 1 A

The PLARSHMT & OBMASLF were awarded to Zach Voss.  Alex Cooper worked his tail off in all facets of the game to win the Faceoff Chain for a third consecutive game.  This still does not make up for his previous absence and the team stated that his fine is still outstanding and starting to accrue interest.

Stars of the Game

1)  Zach Voss

2)  Jake Mullendore

3)  CJ Tate

Silver is back in action on Monday, 7 November at RALSTON Arena at 7:00 PM.  If you haven't been to the BRAND NEW BPHL WEBSITE yet, please go and check it out.  Slattery Design has really outdone themselves.  Thanks to a great scheduling snafu, the entire BPHL took last week off to rake leaves across the community.  Together, they bagged 1,800 tons of leaves out of Ralston yards.  Silver and Red will match up for the second time this season with Red winning the first contest in a shootout.  It is the first Monday of MOVEMBER.  Free tickets to anyone with visible mustache after 7 days of no shaving.  Also, free prostate exams will be conducted in the Red dressing room pre- and post-game - although that is not related to MOVEMBER.

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