The Dirty Blues hit every note while whistling a concert of goals past Vikings keeper, Rob Gray, for a 7-0 shutout win. Jamie Krause added an apple to his bagel when threaded a beautiful pass to a streaking Brian Wallace who went end to end for a beauty. Roland Wilfing, Hide Matsuoka and James Vanias helped out the usual suspects on offence with 2 points apiece.

Top draft pick Yosef ‘Napalm’ Natour with 5 points and Barry ‘The Roe-bot’ with the shutout were difference makers. The Fu Dogs were going for their 3rd straight win but Always Picked Last showed why they are in first place and came away with a close 3-2 decision. With a strong Peter ‘Hellraiser’ Helenius on D and the duo of Boot and Brennan up front, APL survived without key contributors Shama Nigmatzyanov and Casey Westergaard to get the W.
