Dark Rainbows (1-0) vs. LBS (1-0)
Location: Corlears North, 3:00 PM
All-Time Series: LBS leads 5-4-1
Game Notes:
Both teams started the season on the right foot with solid wins in their opening matches.  Going back to last year, the Dark Rainbows have now won six consecutive games, although they showed a little rust last week.  After dominating goaltending throughout the 2007 playoffs, Trevor Tyrrell (who now wants to be known as “White Jesus”) looked almost human by allowing two goals against Filthy Gorgeous.  LBS showed a lot of heart against a revamped Cobra Kai team, as they rallied from behind to win 3-2.  However, two of their goals came from Molly Jacobs, who will be a good 3,000 miles from the court on Sunday.  In four years, these teams have already played each other ten times, including several classic playoff games.  The series is now about even, and we can expect the same from this game.
Keys to the Game: 
1. The Rainbows can count on a solid performance from White Jesus, so it will be up to their balanced offensive attack to make the difference.
2. With Ken “The Alpha Male” Poulin still serving his suspension, Karsten Pichon and Brian “Grandmaster B” Barrett will be the duo to keep an eye on for LBS.
3. Sean Reynolds hit the weight room hard all winter.  Although he can now bench press 500 pounds and squat more than 700, his new found muscle mass may slow him down.
Eli’s Pick: Dark Rainbows.  Even though I’m Jewish, I recognize the awesomeness of White Jesus.
Derek’s Pick: Dark Rainbows.  They truly have some of the best unknown scorers in the league.  I expect a lot of goals by a lot of different people.
