GAME OF THE WEEK
Denim Demons (3-0-1) vs. Fresh Kills (1-2-0-1)
Location: Corlears North, 4:00 PM
All-Time Series: Fresh Kills leads 5-2
Game Notes: The Denim Demons are clicking on all cylinders this season, averaging four goals for and one goal against per game. They boast one of the most lethal offensive arsenals in the league, featuring Michael Pereira, Micael Holmstrom, Lena Moy-Borgen, and Adam “Legend Killer” Rubens. In fact, the Demons have scored more goals in one game (eight vs. Mexican Standoff) than Fresh Kills has all season (seven). It will be up to Kevin “Tiny” Foster, Dave Sokolyansky, and Alexandre Frenette to rejuventate this sputtering offense. However, this veteran squad cannot be overlooked, as last season’s deep playoff run demonstrates.
Keys To The Game:
1. Michael Pereira was Adam “Legend Killer” Rubens’s sleeper fantasy pick for this season. He currently leads the team with five goals, so–as usual–Rubens was right.
2. The last ten minutes of this game will be crucial for Fresh Kills. Against both the Sky Fighters and Cobra Kai, all of their goals came after the forty minute mark, but they also allowed four goals in the final ten minutes in their loss to Filthy Gorgeous.
3. Fresh Kills enforcer Heidi “The Maple Leaf Muscle” Karst is one of the most feared and intimidating players in BTSH. She has already been ejected from three games, including one for a karate chop to Jon “Dinner Plate” Feldman’s esophagus. Her presence will keep the Demon goons in check.
Eli’s Pick: Fresh Kills. If I didn’t pick them, Heidi would beat me up.
Derek’s Pick: Denim Demons. The Fightin’ Rubens plan to unveil a new jersey for this game (for a sum total of about twelve), so they’ll have extra motivation for the win.
Week 4 News and Notes

Mexican Standoff Finally Lets Loose
As a dry practice run for the upcoming courtside party on June 1 (which Jefferson Hendricks is really working hard on), Mexican Standoff threw an open Cinco De Mayo Party on Sunday. Festivities included a “Mustache vs. Non-Mustache” intra-team scrimmage, a chips and salsa station, and a piñata. The action climaxed when Mexican Standoff finally broke open the piñata, splattering candy across the court. However, Trevor “White Jesus” Tyrrell materialized in the nick of time to save the candy from reaching any playing areas. Although the party was a smashing success, there was one casualty: Hendricks’s sneaker. With one half of his playing footwear dangling precariously from a tree, he was forced to play his game with one sneaker and one boot. Since Hendricks scored a goal, maybe he should consider playing this way more often.

GAME OF THE WEEK
What The Puck (3-0) vs. Corlears Hookers (3-0)
Location: Corlears North, 5:00 PM
All-Time Series: Corlears Hookers lead 2-0
Game Notes: This game features a classic matchup of high-octane offense versus rock-solid defense. What The Puck currently boasts the most goals in the league with an average of six per game. Three of BTSH’s top six goal scorers wear orange, with Larry “Mad Dog” Zimmer leading the way with six, and Mike “The X-Factor” Woodsworth and Tom MacDonald each chipping in four. The Corlears Hookers pride themselves in their impenetrable defense, allowing just one goal through three games. Goalie Chris Beauvois leads the league with two shutouts. These teams last met in the 2007 semi-finals, when the Corlears Hookers ended What The Puck’s hopes for a second consecutive championship with a shootout victory. What The Puck will be looking to even the score.
Keys to the Game:
1. Darrell “Accurate Bob” Hartman is a key cog in What The Puck’s well-oiled machine, but has missed the first three games. Whether he shows for this game could go a long way in deciding the winner.
2. Despite the Corlears Hookers’ apparent focus on defense, Brendan “Dutch” Kearney and Gavin “Dutch’s Brother” Kearney are still capable of scoring a lot of goals and breaking a game wide open.
3. Roderick “Guy LeDouche” Cruz has recently started to learn the ancient art of voodoo. He was seen this week sporting an Albert “Al” Huang voodoo doll with several pins in it. Monitor Al’s performance closely.
Eli’s Pick: Corlears Hookers. Good defense stops good offense.
Derek’s Pick: What The Puck. Although their offense is leading the way this season, they also feature a solid defense anchored by grizzled veteran, Corey “Chongo” Winters.
