Shot in the Dark falls again, 6-1.

The only thing harder than rooting for Andy Long to fail, is rooting for Andy Long to succeed.

This week, he had to jump in net, and despite the 6-1 loss, played very well. In a game with fill in goalies, it was the green team who came out on top.

After a rough start, where even his own team was shooting pucks at him, Andy Long settled down and played well the rest of the game. 

Green went up 3-0 before Jon Morin had a chance to put one in his own net. Steve Thompson got one back as he got red on the board, but that would be all the scoring the Shot in the Dark team would get, as sub goalie Mike Harmon would shut the door.

"Hey I'm taking up a colleciton to send Ben on a cruise if anyone would like to donate," said Rick Bobrycki after the game. "Sadly for Ben, the only openings available were during our playoffs."

Down 3-1, Jon Morin stole the puck in his own zone, right along the goal line against the boards. He passed the puck to his goalie Andy Long, and Long watched it go off his goalie skate and into the net for a 4-1 green lead.

Jake Steigewald was credited with the goal.

"I thought it was a beauty," said Jake.

Morin did get a redeemer later in the game, when he lifted a stick on a sure green goal.

In the 2nd, a nice poke check by Bobrycki sent Sean Steigerwald away for the 5th green goal. Jake Silk ended the scoring in the third on an unassisted goal for the 6-1 final.

Bob Powell had a great game, as he shadowed and harassed Jake Silk all game, holding him to just one late, meaningless goal.

Green moves into first place with this win, sending red into 2nd place, with the 3rd place gold team right on their heels.
