Tonight is the start of D League Finals between the Blue Devils and Hockey Team.
My prediction for this series is the Blue Devils will win it in 3 games ...

Well, I think that the Blue Devils will because of good goaltending tonight.
Prediction: Hockey Team 3 - Blue Devils 5

C & D League PLAYOFFS ... RESULTS !!!

Well, I have to say that it was pretty interesting hockey for the first round of the playoffs. We can tell that many players are taking these playoffs very seriously...
I know that there is a list of players from the Hockey Team, Misfits, Leprechans and Chiefs that are under review for suspension regarding fighting and trying to Injure players during the game.


Monday 10/1 Green 9pm C League Mighty Beavers vs Hitmen
Prediction: Mighty Beavers 7 - Hitmen 3
FINAL SCORE : Mighty Beavers 6 - Hitmen 2 ( 15 - 5 in my predictions ... )

This game was a close one starting the 3rd period but the Beavers took over scored 3 unanswered goals. Now, the Beavers are heading into the finals and rumor has it that the Hitmen will not be playing in the C League next session.

FINAL SCORE : Hockey Team 6 - Misfits 3 ( 15 - 6 in my predictions ... )

This was a game that could of been fun to watch but it got out of hand with players trying to hurt others and a fight with 15 seconds left in the game ... It was a close one also with a score of 3 -2 for the H.T. starting the 3rd. I really thought that the Misfits would win this one ...

3 Stars of the Game :
  1. # 18 Paul Markuson (2 goals, GW) HT
  2. # 9 Tony Nigro (2 goals) HT
  3. # 44 Travis Culwell (1 goal, 1 assist) HT

This was a very good game to watch. I would say the best of the night. No penalties on either side and good goaltending.

Well this is a new season like we say. I am hoping for some surprises so it makes it more interesting to watch. Anyway, here you go with my predictions for the first round of the playoffs


Monday 10/1 Green 9pm C League Mighty Beavers vs Hitmen
The underdogs are the Hitmen in this one. I don't think that they have a chance on winning this game. But again, if the Hitmen goalie has a miracle game, you never know...
Prediction: Mighty Beavers 7 - Hitmen 3

Tuesday 10/2 Green 8:30pm D League Hockey Team vs Misfits
After watching the past games from both teams, I am giving the edge to the Misfits in this one.
I think that if they play like they did against the Yokels yesterday, they will win this one.
Misfits are 0 -2 against the Hockey Team this season ...
Prediction: Hockey Team 4 - Misfits 5

Tuesday 10/2 Green 10pm D League Blue Devils vs Yokels
I think that the Blue Devils have a more balance team then the Yokels. I also think that the goalies will be a factor in this one. The edge goes to the Blue Devils.
Blue Devils are 2 - 0 against the Yokels this season ...
Prediction: Blue Devils 5 - Yokels 3

Tuesday 10/2 Gold 9pm C League Leprechans vs Chiefs
Well, the Leprechans is a well balanced team with a great goalie ... Leprechans will win without a doubt.
Prediction: Leprechans 7 - Chiefs 3

D League - Games on 09-26-07 to 09-28-07 Results !!!

These are the results of the last week of regular season for the D League. This summer season has been exciting considering that the last day of the regular season determined what team was going to get the final spot for the playoffs.


09-26-07 : **********************************

Green Rink 845pm ... Stickmen vs Misfits
Prediction: Stickmen 3 - Misfits 5
FINAL SCORE : Stickmen 1 - Misfits 9 ( 7 - 5 in my predictions ...)

I was surprised to see that the Stickmen didn't show up for this important game. I have to say that it wasn't the best performance from goalie "Steve McCollister, Stickmen". This game put the Misfits in 4th and final spot for the playoffs. Now, the last day of the season will determine if the Misfits are in or out.

3 Stars of the Game :
  1. # 25 Matthew Taylor (2 goals, 1 assist) Mis
  2. # 27 Randy Perry (2 goals, 1 assist) Mis
  3. # 37 Doug Hackett (2 goals) Mis

Green Rink 1015pm ... Phantoms vs Hitmen

Prediction: Phantoms 3 - Hitmen 6
FINAL SCORE : Phantoms 1 - Hitmen 7 ( 8 - 5 in my predictions ...)

This game was tied 1 - 1 early in the 2nd and then the Hitmen scored 3 unanswered goals. From that point it was all Hitmen game when they scored 3 more goals in the 3rd to pave the way to a convincing win over the Phantoms. I would like to note that # 63 from the Hitmen got injured to his knee at the end of the game. We wish him well and hope he can recover and play hockey soon.

3 Stars of the Game :
  1. # 9 Chris Gallagher (5 goals, 1 assist) Hit
  2. # 7 Brian Lowe (2 goals, 1 assist) Hit
  3. # 6 Linda Mason (Great defensive play) Hit

09-27-07 : **********************************


Gold Rink 845pm ... Blue Devils vs Spartans
Prediction: Blue Devils 6 - Spartans 2
FINAL SCORE : Blue Devils 9 - Spartans 3 ( 9 - 5 in my predictions ... )

This game didn't have any consequence for the standings. It just showed how the Blue Devils are a notch higher in skills then the Spartans ...

3 Stars of the Game :
  1. # 3 Mike Drago (1 goal, 3 assists) B.D.
  2. # 15 Joe Picardo (2 goals) B.D.
  3. # 12 Mark Johnson (3 assists) B.D.

Green Rink 1015pm ... Hockey Team vs Ice Dogs
Prediction: Hockey Team 9 - Ice Dogs 1
FINAL SCORE : Hockey Team 2 - Ice Dogs 1 (10 - 5 in my predictions... )

This was a great game for goalie Terry Redmon from the Ice Dogs. He received a total of 60 shots and allowed only one goal !!! He almost pulled the win but lost in shootout ...
I think that if the Ice Dogs had a goalie during the season, they could of climbed the standings drastically. Maybe next season ....

3 Stars of the Game :
  1. # 73 Terry Redmon (60 shots, 59 saves) I.D.
  2. # 13 Mats Lindquist (1 goal, GW) H.T.
  3. # 11 Heather Welborn (1 goal) I.D.

09-28-07 : **********************************

Green Rink 730pm ... Ice Dogs vs Phantoms
Prediction: Ice Dogs 2 - Phantoms 4
FINAL SCORE : Ice Dogs 2 - Phantoms 12 ( 11 - 5 in my predictions... )

The Ice Dogs only had one player on the bench, so that didn't help at all. And it wasn't the same goalie as their previous game against the Hockey Team. The Phantoms controlled the game from start to finish. I have to say that Nate was flying on the ice and had a couple of goals.
This was the final game for both teams. They are not in the playoffs and now they can focus on the next season. Will the Ice Dogs be back ? If so, will they have a better squad ? How about the Phantoms ? Are they coming back ?

3 Stars of the Game :
  1. # 41 Chris Keffer (3 goals, 2 assists) Pha
  2. # 13 Jason Neal (3 goals, 1 assist) Pha
  3. # 56 Brian Brookman (1 goal, 4 assists) Pha

Gold Rink 845pm ... Yokels vs Misfits
Prediction: Yokels 4 - Misfits 5
FINAL SCORE : Yokels 6 - Misfits 11 ( 12 - 5 in my predictions.. )

I would never thought that this would be a high scoring game ... But the results of this game officially put the Misfits in the playoffs with the final spot.

3 Stars of the Game :
  1. # 25 Matthew Taylor (4 goals, 2 assists) Mis
  2. # 6 Matt Lux (1 goal, 2 assists) Mis
  3. # 19 Jason Hurst (1 goal, 3 assists) Yok

Green Rink 900pm ... Spartans vs MidCities
Prediction: Spartans 5 - MidCities 3
FINAL SCORE : Spartans 8 - MidCities 1 ( 13 - 5 in my predictions... )

Now that both teams have played their last game, are they coming back next session ?
I know that it was a disappointing season for MidCities ... I thought that they were going to be higher in the standings. Maybe next season ....

3 Stars of the Game :
  1. # 29 Mike Skupien (2 goals, 2 assists) Spa
  2. # 40 Brad Aho (3 assists) Spa
  3. # 7 Jason Lind (2 goals) Spa

Gold Rink 1015pm ... Stickmen vs Hitmen
Prediction: Stickmen 4 - Hitmen 5
FINAL SCORE : Stickmen 0 - Hitmen 3 ( 14 - 5 in my predictions... )

The game before this one decided the fate of the Stickmen. They knew that they were not in the playoffs anymore so they didn't have as much desire to win this game. It was a good game with good goaltending from the Hitmen netminder. Now that the season is over for both these teams, what roster changes are they going to make for the next season...

3 Stars of the Game :
  1. # 35 David Speer (25 shots, 25 saves) Hit
  2. # 79 Kenny Polman (Great plays) Hit
  3. # 14 Christian Herr (Great plays) Hit

Prediction: Hitmen 5 - Ham N Eggers 3
FINAL SCORE : Hitmen 8 - Ham N Eggers 12 (5 - 5 in my predictions ... )

I did not expect a game like this one ... This was a fast pace game but a nightmare for the goalies ... The game was tied at 5 - 5 entering the 3rd period. Then 7 goals were scored by the Ham N Eggers in the last period and 4 of those were in the last 3 min. of play.

3 Stars of the Game :
  1. # 50 Stephen Zadel (6 goals, 3 assists) H.E.
  2. # 7 Brian Chavez (3 goals, 1 assist) Hit
  3. # 9 Chris Gallagher (3 goals, 2 assists) Hit

Green Rink 900pm ... Predators vs Chiefs
I wonder if the Predators will show up tonight ... The past 2 games, they didn't have enough players to play so the games were forfeit.
Prediction: Predators 2 - Chiefs 6
FINAL SCORE : Predators 2 - Chiefs 5 (6 - 5 in my predictions ... )

This was another fast pace game with nice plays. It was nice to see the Predators show up tonight.

3 Stars of the Game :

This is a must win for the Stickmen to make sure they are in the playoffs.

D League - Games on 09-19-07

There was 2 games scheduled for that day.
Ice Dogs (1-16-0) vs Hitmen (7-7-2)
Stickmen (12-4-1) vs MidCities (4-14-0)


Final Score : Ice Dogs 0 Hitmen 7

This was a one way game. The Hitmen controlled the game from start to finish. You could clearly see that the Ice Dogs were not in the same Level of play. The Hitmen had a total of 49 shots to 16 for the Ice Dogs. We know that both teams are not making the playoffs so the points didn't matter in this one. Both teams can prepare themselves for next season.

3 Stars of the Game :

  1. # 9 Chris Gallagher (4 goals)
  2. # 12 Brent Lacasse (1 goal, 2 assist)
  3. # 35 David Speer (Shutout, 16 Saves)


Final Score : Stickmen 3 MidCities 0

This was a nice fast paste game, with no incidents and good hockey. The game winning goal was scored in the first period and that was enough for the win. I have to say that the goalie for the Stickmen made the difference in this one. The score could have been tied on a breakaway when #87 T. Slezak thought he had a sure goal in front of an empty net ... but the pad and then stick from Stickmen's goalie had the final answer. With the win, the Stickmen are now in 4th place, 1 point behind 1st.

3 Stars of the Game :

  1. #1 Marcos Gallegos (Shutout, 27 Saves)
  2. #29 Stephane Trapp (1 goal, GW)
  3. # 9 Roman Antolik (1 goal)

C League - Games on 09-18-07

Both teams started slowly but the Chiefs went into 2nd gear and dominated the H.T. with 5 unanswered goals. In the 3rd period, both teams scored a goal.

3 Stars of the Game :

1 - #55 Bryan Leach (4 goals, 1 assist)
2- #01 Paul Slezak (1 goal, 2 assist)
3- #88 Jeff Lister (1 goal, 1 assist)
