White made Week 3’s biggest bang on Friday when both teams went to 3-0 on the season. The Paper Tigers, with injury replacement call-up David Smith, silenced the Dirty Blues with goalie Barry ‘the Roe-bot’ being a huge difference in the tight 5-3 game. APL came from behind to beat the Ducks 4-3 in the B game with Simon Pinard and Captain Okawara playing hard in a losing effort. The close games prove that the Blues will be tough season.
Environmentalists were happy when Green swept the weekend series from Yellow’s Bulldogs (A) and Puckhounds (B). The Vikings got a shutout from Goalie (Rob) Gray while Norwegian captain, Sigve Klepsvik, was the offensive energizer against a neutered Bulldogs squad. It was the Mark Cobbett show for the Hairy Crabs as they got past the Puckhounds 4-3 and remained undefeated.
In the weekend’s final match-up, the Killer Pandas ended a one game slide and beat a short-handed Fog Devils team, 5-3. Geoff Ng scored the winner while captain Darryl Slaney and ‘Killer’ Rich Rhoades each had 2 goals and 2 assists. The IceCocks got 7 of their 9 goals from the Brians, Ewing and Ohlrich, in a 9-1 drubbing of the Fu Dogs.
