Two tough ones with mixed results.

We finished getting through the other teams last week when we played Team America.  They were also undefeated when we met.  It was a a tough tight game throughout.  The final score was 1-2.  We nearly tied it up at the end, but couldn't quite get the goal we needed.  In fact, Team America only scored once.  The second goal was tipped in by Flink.  He was pretty pissed off.

Last night we played Punx again, starting through the rotation again.  We were down 5 skaters and Adam, our goalie, wasn't there.   Our captain, the other Paul, scrambled for us and we got a stand-in, which was nice.  It was still a really short bench with only two forward lines and three defensemen in total.  Punx had about the same size bench, though.  It was a hell of a hard hitting game, complete with bad blood.  Matt spent a long time in the box, especially at the beginning in the third.  About eight minutes... no idea why.  I think the box door got stuck.  In the end, we won 6-4.  Our 6 included a hat trick by Z.  I nearly had a couple myself.  I was totally gassed by the end of the game though.  I could barely skate.  Anyway, we're in second place.  Huzzah!
