Go To Bread

Welcome to Dutch Country

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.
