Defense leads Showboats to the finals.
Game 2
SHOWBOATS 9 GUNSLINGERS 6 It was all about defense as the teams combined for 15 goals. The first place red Showboats only needed a tie this week after winning last week in game one. It was 2-0 before Tony Onello's line hit this ice. "Not the start we wanted," said Onello. "I knew I should have started the Powell line." By the end of the first Fuji and the Gunglingers were down 3-1, but felt like they were still in it. However, a five goal 2nd period would put to rest any thoughts of another protest game. If not for some poor play in their own zone, this would have been a 9-2 game. But bad choices, and a Sean Steigerwald freeze up in front of his own net, kept the green team in it for a while longer. A Phatt Deskin empty net goal would finally seal the deal for the Showboats. "I didn't want my 432 BBHC goal to be an empty netter, but it is what it is." Next week the Showboats host the Breakers in the finals. Game 3 N/A |
