\nFilthy Gorgeous (5-1-1) vs. Unicorns (5-2)<\/strong>
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins West, 3:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous leads 2-1-1
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> After winning their first\u00a0five games of the season, Filthy Gorgeous has gone winless\u00a0in the last two weeks, losing to the Dark Rainbows and then tying the Denim Demons.\u00a0 Their potent offense, which averaged six goals a game during their five-game winning streak, has been held to just two goals in the last two games.\u00a0 However, the defense remains staunch, as Filthy has allowed only 10 goals all season, including a shutout against the Demons last week.\u00a0 The Unicorns have won their last three games, although each has been by only one goal.\u00a0 Despite this impressive run, their loss against the Happy Little Elves remains a puzzling dark cloud to\u00a0their season.\u00a0 Although they clearly have the potential to play at an elite level, they also have the potential to lay an egg every now and then.\u00a0 Which version will show up on Sunday when they face their Woodsworth Division rivals Filthy Gorgeous?
\nKeys To The Game:<\/strong>
\n1. While “Gentleman” James Pereira leads Filthy Gorgeous with nine goals and has received most of the fanfare for his accomplishment, Sunny Mehra has quietly chipped in seven of his own.\u00a0 He remains an underrated force on the team.
\n2. Although Susanna of the Unicorns\u00a0has only two goals this season, she has come through in the clutch multiple times.\u00a0 She scored the only shootout goal in their win against\u00a0the Mathematics and\u00a0tallied the overtime goal to beat the Corlears Hookers.
\n3. Though the game’s existence is questionable, Filthy Gorgeous defeated the Unicorns 4-2 in a tight week 5 battle.\u00a0 Although Filthy wore their electric lime throwback jerseys for that game, captain Monica Russo has ruled against breaking them out a second time.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous.\u00a0 A win will give them some momentum for their showdown with the Corlears Hookers next week.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous.\u00a0 Although they didn’t get the result they wanted last weekend, their level of hockey was playoff caliber.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins East, 2:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Sky Fighters lead 6-4
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> The Gouging Anklebiters gave What The Puck its biggest scare of the season last Sunday, as the Biters held a two goal lead with ten minutes to go in the game.\u00a0 Despite eventually losing in heartbreaking fashion, they now have the confidence that they can run with any team in the league, including their Schloeder Division foe, the Sky Fighters.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Sky Fighters
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> No Pick. Derek will be reffing this game.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins West, 2:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> What The Puck leads 3-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Although his exact state of mind was hazy at the time, What The Puck’s Adriano “Muscles Marinara” Bratta claimed he will sport a Cobra Kai t-shirt this Sunday.\u00a0 Whether this will be to rejoin his old team or to stick it to\u00a0his former teammates\u00a0remains to be seen.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> What The Puck.\u00a0 Bratta’s only wearing the Cobra Kai shirt, because he doesn’t have an official What The Puck shirt yet.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> What The Puck.\u00a0 Bratta remains with WTP, as it’s very difficult to get out of one of Captain Larry’s ironclad contracts.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins East, 3:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Dark Rainbows lead 6-1
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Dark Rainbows players Sean Reynolds and Jennie Brown are set to be wed this coming weekend.\u00a0 As a result, the Dark Rainbows expect three players to be in attendance for this game.\u00a0 In an effort to equalize the competition, Reynolds invited several members of Fresh Kills as well.\u00a0 Bob “Olmec” Weyersberg was not one of them.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> No Pick. Eli will be reffing this game.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Fresh Kills.\u00a0 The numbers become too much of a factor.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins East, 4:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Tied 2-2
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> The Denim Demons have not allowed a goal in their last 113 minutes of play.\u00a0 However, their offense has also stagnated somewhat, as they have only notched\u00a0three goals in their last three games.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins West, 4:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers lead 2-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Mega Touch finally got of the schneid last week with a sound victory over the favored Happy Little Elves.\u00a0 Conversely, the Corlears Hookers suffered a disappointing loss in their championship game rematch with Fresh Kills.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins East, 5:30 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Rehabs lead 1-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> With the Rehabs\u00a0now on a\u00a0five-game winning streak, this had the potential to be a blockbuster\u00a0Game of the Week.\u00a0 Had the Happy Little Elves managed to win last weekend, they would have entered this game with a four-game winning streak and a winning record. Sadly,\u00a0the\u00a0Elves\u00a0cracked under the pressure and once again fell below .500.\u00a0 However, there is one interesting backstory to this game, as\u00a0Rehabs captain Meredith “Danberg” Ficarelli seems to have an unfortunately close relationship with several of the Elves, most notably annoying, yet faithful reader Rich Glanzer.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Rehabs.\u00a0 This feels a lot better.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Rehabs.\u00a0 The biggest battle of the game may be between Glanzer and Hector “$howT!m3” Melendez to see whose trash talk is less comprehensible.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins West, 5:30 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Tuques lead 7-1
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> The Tuques are riding high after their upset of the Sky Fighters and recent uptick of press coverage.\u00a0 In addition, with team goalie Minkus now playing at an “average” level, the Mighty Squirrels will have to work (kind of) hard to score goals.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Tuques.\u00a0 They seem to have the Squirrels’ number.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Mighty Squirrels<\/p>\n
\nMexican Standoff (0-6-0-1) vs. LBS, Inc. (4-3)<\/strong>
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins East, 6:30 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> LBS, Inc. leads 7-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Schloeder Division rivals will square off in this week’s edition of Hockey Night in Tompkins.\u00a0 When these two teams met in week 6, LBS, Inc. blitzed Mexican Standoff 8-0, as\u00a0league-leading scorer\u00a0Karsten Pichon recorded a\u00a0hat trick.\u00a0 With LBS, Inc. still holding a grudge over the “beach incident”, they will continue to show no mercy.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> LBS, Inc.\u00a0 They’re not too pleased with Standoff’s white jerseys either.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> LBS, Inc.<\/p>\n
\nEli:<\/strong> 39-13
\nDerek: <\/strong>34-19<\/p>\nSurvivor Pool<\/h4>\n
