\nMathematics (2-0) vs. Mighty Squirrels (1-0-1)<\/strong>
\nLocation<\/strong>: Moffo, 5:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series<\/strong>: Mathematics lead 4-0
\nGame Notes<\/strong>: This matchup has rapidly developed into one of the most intense rivalries in all of BTSH.\u00a0 Captains Rachel “A-Korn” Greene and Derek Tagliarino have made no secret of their\u00a0mutual hatred\u00a0of one another, as\u00a0their small New Jersey-New York feud has escalated exponentially.\u00a0 However, Greene and Tagliarino were able to put aside their differences just long enough to\u00a0wager a case of beer on the outcome of this game.\u00a0 The annual Squirrels-Mathematics prank war\u00a0has also commenced.\u00a0\u00a0The Mathematics struck first by stealing\u00a0Rocky, the Mighty Squirrels’ mascot.\u00a0 The Squirrels then retaliated by kidnapping the Mathematics’ mascot, Screech.\u00a0 This game promises to be a blood bath and will not be for the faint of heart.
\nKeys to the Game<\/strong>:
\n1.\u00a0Despite generating several scoring chances last week for the Mathematics, Andy Pratt was held without a goal.\u00a0 He’ll be looking to change that this Sunday.
\n2. Goalie Sarah Coombs of Mathematics\u00a0has allowed just one goal in two games, while Tommy Mayoros of the Mighty Squirrels has allowed just two.\u00a0 Both have promised to outperform their counterpart in this game.
\n3.\u00a0The Mighty Squirrels’ Arthur “Lil Weezy” Revechkis has been practicing a new shot he calls\u00a0the “Knuckle-Puck” all week.\u00a0 He plans to unveil it Sunday.<\/p>\n
\nLocation<\/strong>: Corlears North, 3:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series<\/strong>: Denim Demons lead 5-0-1
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> In what is already being billed as the big “Ellery Revenge Game”, Mexican Standoff appears to have little chance on paper.\u00a0 Of course, the intangibles that Ellery brings to this game may be enough to surprise the Fightin’ Rubens.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Denim Demons.\u00a0 They’ll show Ellery they’re doing just fine without him.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Denim Demons<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears South, 3:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous leads 2-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Fresh Kills has looked\u00a0sluggish so far this\u00a0season, while Filthy Gorgeous has struggled against last year’s two finalists.\u00a0 This could be the game that starts one of these teams\u00a0on a hot streak.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Fresh Kills.\u00a0 They showed brief flashes of brilliance in their game against Cobra Kai.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Moffo, 3:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Dark Rainbows lead 3-1
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> One of the highlights of the Tuques’ 2007 season was a shootout victory over the eventual champions.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Dark Rainbows
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Dark Rainbows<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears North, 4:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> What The Puck leads 2-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Cobra Kai is coming off of two heart breaking losses, and their reward for that is a date with Coach Mad Dog and his high efficiency offense (coincidentally, the same reward that will be seen on Rock of Love 3<\/em>).
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> What the Puck.\u00a0 It appears Cobra Kai does not meet the height requirements.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> What the Puck.\u00a0 Poor Ski.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears South, 4:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> LBS leads 7-1
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> The opposing captains, Phil “Sandy” Donohue and Sascha Puritz, went to the same high school together.\u00a0 There are\u00a0local\u00a0braggin’ rights\u00a0at stake here!
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Gouging Anklebiters.\u00a0 If they can play a competitive game with Bob W in net, I’ll just assume they can do better with their own goalie.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick: <\/strong>LBS.\u00a0 “Karsten and Brian” is the new “Karsten and Ken”.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Moffo, 4:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> First Meeting
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> The Sky Fighters have already eclipsed their win total from the 2007 regular season.\u00a0 Might they be the team to beat in 2008?\u00a0 Probably not.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Sky Fighters.\u00a0 Martin is good.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Sky Fighters.\u00a0 I agree: Martin is good.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\nUnicorns (1-1) vs. Rehabs (0-1-1)<\/strong>
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears North, 5:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Rehabs lead 7-5-1
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> There has been a lot of talk about\u00a0$howT!m3 and Villano VI facing their former team (mostly from $howT!m3).\u00a0\u00a0 However, the real story could be the battle between two of the self-proclaimed top goalies in the league.\u00a0
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Rehabs.\u00a0 I wouldn’t be surprised if this game ends in a tie though.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick: <\/strong>Unicorns<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears South, 5:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers lead 1-0
\nGame Notes: <\/strong>Dutch’s Brother has promised to name his baby “Coop” if the Corlears Hookers lose.
\nEli\u2019s Pick: <\/strong>Corlears Hookers.\u00a0 Dutch will see to it that the new baby is named “Dutch’s Niece\/Nephew”.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers.\u00a0 There can only be one true “Coop” anyway.<\/p>\n
\nEli:<\/strong> 9-7
\nDerek:<\/strong> 11-5<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
