This last weekend was the two play-in games for 4 teams trying to get to the lofty heights of the Bronze League coveted Stanley Keg Championships...
The team matchup was Rampage versus Severe Icing and the Spider Monkeys versus the Puddle Jumpers...
Severe Icing has had only one win this season and Rampage is 3 and 7, so on the cards, Rampage should have romped home with the win...
The Spider Monkeys and the Puddle Jumpers have met only once, with the win going to the Monkeys. With the latest Puddle Jumper shinanigans and Spider Monkeys having a tendency to throw their own feaces, this could have been a chippy meeting.
Severe Icing ended up losing 6-2 having played better than Rampage in the last 3 meetings, got more shots on the Rampage, but were thwarted by Devin Nunn who has posted an impressive 95% save against average, maybe time for him to move on up to silver and stay there? What was he doing playing anyway after only having played 1 game in the regular season?
The Spider Monkeys ended up beating the Puddle Jumpers 2-1 in a way more gentlemanly game that anticipated. It was tied up all the way until the last 8 seconds when they snuck one in past Stuart Egerton. Besty for the Spider Monkeys played like a wall back in net and faced 30 something shots and only giving one up, at least he has played more than 1 game!
The teams now in the Stanley Keg playoffs are now...
Stingers vs Spider Monkeys
TD Whalers vs Rampage
API Sens vs Jets
Bandits vs Indians
Should be a good Saturday night 'o' hockey this weekend!

Stand by for an ass whoopin Senators. The Jets are going back to the Keg.

Stingers Bitches!
ReplyDeleteHey, Hello Kitty! Don't go jinxing us!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of goalies who should/shouldn't move up, and inequity, and teams staying together...
ReplyDeleteHere's a thought, let teams stay together but all goalies must be free agents. After each season the best save percentage goes to the last place team, any body playing goalie for the first time or worse save percent goes to the top team and so on. Might make things a bit tighter in the goals for/against stats.
Great idea!
ReplyDeleteI want some of whatever Karma's smokin'
ReplyDeleteThat is a brilliant idea, I have seen too many teams that have great defense and a great goalie, kill other teams because that team has weeker offense... Let's take the Monkeys, their poor goalie, Best, regularly faces 40 to 50 shots, let's in 3 or 4, but the rest of the team sucks and can't put any shots on goal.
ReplyDeleteHe is trying and does keep them in the game...
But, take the Stingers goalie, Dana, how would he fair playing for the Monkeys for example as he is used to only 25 or less shots per game... A goalie is an integral part of the team and if what happens in front of him makes a huge difference in the end result...
Saying that, I love this idea, but the teams will never go for it at all! Ever!!
Well, it's easier to move one player than break up a team to achieve some parity....
ReplyDeleteUh, how about instead of saying everyone on the Spider Monkeys suck, how about just stating that they are a true I league team with lots of people new to the ice. When you play on a loaded team, yes, there will be teams that 'suck' in comparision. It's good there are teams like the Monkeys and Severe Iceing that are a gateway into beer league for many. I'm sure you 'sucked' at one point and now feel like a NHLer as you steal a puck from a newbie. But I guess that now gives you a right to pass judgement on your fellow Bronze league players.
ReplyDeleteCan we get some one who knows the NYTEX rules to write the recaps? You have to sub 5 games to be eligable to play in the playoffs. Since there is one goalie per team it's hard to get a goalie to play 5 games. That rule does not apply to goalies.
ReplyDeleteAre you here just to play hockey or play hockey and hang out with your friends? If we are here just to play hockey a draft would be good but your talking about moving people away from their teams and friends. This is a beer league where we play hockey and drink beer with our friends. I understand wanting to make it more even but I don't think you can do thi with a beer league. I play softball and it's the same thing there.
I like beer, boobs, and hockey! It doesn't have to be in that order.
ReplyDeleteNunn had to sub for me because Nytex made a saturday night league on a friday night so I had to work. If it had been on a saturday night I would have been in net. Stop yo bitchin.
ReplyDeleteBus Rampage
nunn is a good goalie but is no where good enough to be in silver. and we did not give up more shots, did they start putting more shots up yes but still did not out shoot us. rampage came to gather late in the season and are on fire right now,we where up 6-o in the 1st and where told to back off!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteo and it was 7-2 and i wish nytex could keep better stats!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteGet your rest TJ, the Sens will be raining shots on you this sat. Bring on the ass whip attempt #10. The only ass whip will be Jets #17 over my knee
ReplyDeleteRegarding rampage goalie conflict, HA. Who cares. the rampage will exit this weekend against the Whalers.
Go Sens,
#18
He called the shit poop.
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts on this weekend are, Stingers have a melt down and lose to the Monkeys 4-2, Jets beats the Sens even though #18 is talking smack, Indians lose to the Bandits even though they dress Kyle Kelly in someone elses jersey and the Rampage beats the Whalers with 6 fights...
ReplyDeleteHahahah! That is funny, i don't think it is going to work that way though, but one this for sure, Mike Hvidson is an asshole!
ReplyDeleteHitler was an asshole.
ReplyDeleteI have an asshole.....
ReplyDeleteTJ is out this weekend he went to Jersey shore and stuck with Snookie. It’s cool we got Turco as a back up since he's not doing anything this off season. get ready for ass whooping Sens #18 and try not to sweat like a gay guy eating a hot dog in front of his parents when we take the ice. you got served bitch.
ReplyDeleteRespectfully
#10 Jets
For all of you Bronze league guys complaining about ringers and unfair tactics, you should see what the Supreme Knute pulled on the Indians Silver league team. The Indians beat Knutes Crank It Up team in a evenly matched game 1 battle. Well that wasn't good enough for him, Knute decided to roll out a replacement goaltender that has no right playing in the Silver league. As I see it, everyone gets bent over at NYTEX.
ReplyDeleteBTW....the Indians were out shot in the first two games 119-41. Looks like Knute has a team stacked with "Silver League" players. He is pathetic and a joke.
ReplyDeleteThe Indians play with a gold league goalie who also faces 60+ shots in two games and only lets in 6 goals, how fair is that?
ReplyDeleteIt makes me laugh when teams are winning everythings fine, now all of a sudden they match your goalie with one who is as good, you complain!
As far as I see it, with two matched goalies, you team got beat fair and sqaure.
You just will have to play better now won't you!
I once talked bad about Knute on a blog. I came home to find he had run over my wife and slept with my dog.
ReplyDeleteI hear Chad is too scared of the Jets to play this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI heard the Jets were so afraid of Chad they paid him to go away.
ReplyDeleteAaactually, i heard Siewert was retiring from hockey all together, and going to start his own curling team.
ReplyDeleteI think i saw Chad and Hvidston at Zuromas sharing a beer.
ReplyDeleteDid ya hear that? Bears, now you put the whole station at risk.
ReplyDeleteText penis to your mom.
ReplyDeleteIf you got big boobs, let me hear from ya!
ReplyDeleteI am not playing versus jets. I played in two games in bronze this session, and will follow the rules and not be eligible for playoffs.
ReplyDeleteI would love to start a curling team/club. Except can we replace those stones with kegs of beer, and make it full contact?
Have a good playoffs everyone. I like my job, like my gig, and like being the chief of police.
Yes!!! That's awesome.
ReplyDeleteThat wasn't the question......
ReplyDeleteTurco will help, it makes the match closer to even... I thought gay guys enjoyed wieners. Last time i saw Jets #10 eat a foot long, he took it ALL then turned and smiled at his parents.

Tony, maybe it's just me, but if you're reading, or writing anything, while on the bench, or trying to score goals, i'm thinking thats gonna be a tough one. But should be entertaining none the less. What's going to be even more entertaining is watching y'all TRY to score period! Just sayin....
ReplyDeleteThis Saturday is Roller Dyke Night. So don't forget your Sex Panther made with teal panther bits.
ReplyDeleteSex Panther 60% of the time it works everytime. Oh yeah baby.
ReplyDeleteThere's a rumor going around that a Bronze team is requesting the services of The Great Hvidston, and Nytex is willing to do so because he is struggling in Silver.
ReplyDeleteYou are correct. Old man league (Over 35) coordinating the Blackhawks.
ReplyDeleteCome play in the 35 and over league if you think you can hang, stick-fuck!
ReplyDeleteYou I-Hop people with your Blueberry waffle or some shit, go home!
It's blue waffle you dumb ass.
