The Games
A BALANCED ATTACK. Ed Lau, Bryan Welch, J.P. Chaput, Greg Weitzman, and Brian Wong each scored a goal as the Rehabs defeated the Mathematics, 5-1. Georgine ‘Mulva’ Paulin scored the lone goal for the Mathematics.
MOLLY JACOBS DOES NOT LOSE ON PRIDE WEEKEND. Fernando Limonic and Phil Yang each registered hat tricks, Tommy Capotosta scored two goals, and Molly Jacobs added one goal to keep her unbeaten record on Pride Weekend intact, as LBS raced by the Mighty Squirrels, 9-3. The goal scorers for the Mighty Squirrels were Arthur ‘Lil’ Weezy’ Revechkis, Patrick Larsen, and Mike Mincieli. Mighty Squirrels goalie Tim ‘Scrappy’ Gray added “I would have had a shutout if it weren’t for those eight goals.†Unfortunately for him, nine minus eight is one, which does not constitute a shutout.
THE GOUGING ANKLEBITERS LOVE FREE TACOS MORE THAN THE TUQUES DO. In a game with free tacos and alcohol from San Loco hanging in the balance, the Gouging Anklebiters received goals from Eric ‘El Guapo’ DiPierri, Alex Owen, Charles DeFranco, Phil Donohue, and Mike Menkes for a 5-2 victory against the Tuques. Dean Keyworth and Bill Monahan each scored a goal for the Tuques.
IN OTHER GAMBLING NEWS. The Corlears Hookers rallied from a two-goal deficit to remain undefeated, and win a bottle of champagne, with a 5-3 victory against Filthy Gorgeous. Josh Sadlier-Brown scored the game winner midway through the second half for the Corlers Hookers, who also received two goals from Peter Putka and one goal each from Dustin Olson and Brendan ‘Dutch’ Kearney. All of the scoring for Filthy Gorgeous came from the Pereira family, with James scoring two goals and his brother Joe scoring one. After the game, the Corlears Hookers shared their champagne winnings with Filthy Gorgeous.
GABBY CARSON HAS A FLAIR FOR THE DRAMATIC. Gabby Carson scored on the final attempt of the shootout to lead the Denim Demons past Mexican Standoff, 3-2, for their fifth consecutive victory. Both female shooters scored in the shootout, as Beth Conroy scored for Mexican Standoff, and Steve Chernoski also scored for the Denim Demons in the shootout. In regulation, the Denim Demons received goals from Lena Moy-Borgen and Dave Shyu, while Ben Bloom and Tommy Cho scored for Mexican Standoff. Ellery ‘The Nature Boy’ Gillette was pleased with his plus/minus rating of +1 for the Denim Demons.
WHAT THE PUCK WOULD LIKE TO REMIND YOU THAT THEY ARE THE 2006 BTSH CHAMPIONS. After taking a pre-game team picture with the championship trophy, What The Puck proceeded to put on an offensive showcase with a 7-0 victory against the Bad Touch. Corey ‘Chongo’ Winters and Darrell ‘Accurate Bob’ Hartman each scored two goals, and Tom MacDonald, Brian Vroom, and Mike Woodsworth each scored one goal. Roderick Cruz recorded his league-leading third shutout of the season for What The Puck.
FRESH KILLS JUST GOT EVEN OLDER, IF THAT IS POSSIBLE. Joe Tamburo, Bob ‘Olmec’ Weyersberg, and Alexandre Frenette (on a line with his identical twin brother, Nic, and with their dad in the stands) each scored second-half goals as Fresh Kills rallied from a halftime deficit to defeat Cobra Kai, 3-1, in Jennifer Chen’s final game before moving to California. FK goalie Dave Gil de Rubio suffered a cut to the bridge of his nose in the 2nd, after being crashed into by his own team, causing an extended game delay. Ray Chan scored the lone goal for Cobra Kai, with an assist from Mary Pratt. (Eli Kazin of CK came close to closing the gab when his shot went off the post in the 2nd. -ed.)
WE STILL HAVE THREE UNBEATEN TEAMS. Hector ‘Showtime’ Melendez scored two goals, and Brendan Grainger, Chris Eng, and Ted Kilcommons each scored one goal as the Unicorns remained unbeaten with a 5-1 victory against the Sky Fighters. Martin Cejka scored the lone goal for the Sky Fighters, and although he did not play in this game, Ellery ‘The Nature Boy’ Gillette of the Denim Demons was +1 for the day.
ANOTHER 3-2 VICTORY. P.T. Walkley, John Nielsen, and Sean Reynolds each scored a goal as the Dark Rainbows defeated Pork Fried Rice, 3-2. This was the third consecutive victory by that score for the Dark Rainbows, but for the first time in the streak, overtime was not necessary.

News and Notes
Mexican Standoff deserves a big thank you for putting together the courtside barbeque. Also, anyone who worked the grill deserves thanks, including Roderick Cruz and Corey ‘Chongo’ Winters of What The Puck. Corey even remarked that he may have burnt all the hair off of his knuckles….For those who do not want to walk from Corlears to the bars, you are in luck. The M14A stops every ten to fifteen minutes at the corner of Jackson and Madison, turns on to Grand Street, and will take you all the way to the corner of Delancey and Essex….Rachel ‘A-Korn’ Greene of the Mighty Squirrels was seen at the Johnson’s pouring a beer on the head of Ellery ‘The Nature Boy’ Gillette, probably to celebrate his +1 performance earlier in the day….Starting with the next weekly recap, to give the defenders some more publicity, there will be a new section that will celebrate the Unsung Hero of the week. Anyone can submit a nomination to me, but the nominee must be a defender, and a reason for the nomination must also be provided. If no nominations are submitted for a given week, I will pick a winner at random. Special thanks to Michelle Doucet of What The Puck and Sherman Chan of the Tuques for the idea.
