\nWhat The Puck (3-0) vs. Corlears Hookers (3-0)
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears North, 5:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers lead 2-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> This game features a classic matchup of high-octane offense\u00a0versus rock-solid defense.\u00a0 What The Puck currently boasts the most goals in the league with an average of six per game.\u00a0 Three of BTSH’s\u00a0top six goal scorers wear orange, with Larry “Mad Dog” Zimmer leading\u00a0the\u00a0way with six, and Mike “The X-Factor” Woodsworth and Tom MacDonald each chipping in four.\u00a0 The Corlears Hookers pride themselves in their impenetrable defense,\u00a0allowing\u00a0just one goal through three games.\u00a0 Goalie Chris Beauvois leads the league with two shutouts.\u00a0\u00a0These teams last met in the 2007 semi-finals, when the Corlears Hookers\u00a0ended What The Puck’s hopes for a\u00a0second consecutive championship with a shootout victory.\u00a0 What The Puck will be looking to even the score.
\nKeys to the Game:
\n<\/strong>1. Darrell “Accurate Bob” Hartman is a key cog in What The Puck’s well-oiled machine, but has missed the first three games.\u00a0 Whether he shows for this game could go\u00a0a long way in deciding the winner.
\n2. 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.
\n3. Roderick “Guy LeDouche” Cruz has recently started to learn the ancient art of voodoo.\u00a0 He was seen this week\u00a0sporting an Albert “Al” Huang voodoo doll with several pins in it.\u00a0 Monitor Al’s performance closely.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers.\u00a0 Good defense stops good offense.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick: <\/strong>What The Puck.\u00a0 Although their offense is leading the way this season, they also feature a solid defense anchored by grizzled veteran, Corey “Chongo” Winters.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears North, 3:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Tied 5-5
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Both of these teams are looking for their first win of the season.\u00a0 Hopefully,\u00a0this game\u00a0won’t end in a tie.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Bad Touch
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Bad Touch<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears South, 3:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Mathematics lead 2-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> With Minkus still questionable with a foot injury for this game, the Tuques will likely have to put one of their defenders in goal for the third straight week.\u00a0 For the Mathematics, Andy Pratt is itching for a goal after being held\u00a0scoreless in the last two games.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Moffo, 3:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> LBS leads 7-5
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> LBS may be the elephant in the room this season, as they have won their first three games with little fanfare.\u00a0 A win over Ug and his Unicorns could cause people to\u00a0take notice.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> LBS.\u00a0 They’re going to be even better when Ken “The Alpha Male” Poulin returns in a couple of weeks.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick: <\/strong>LBS<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears North, 4:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Dark Rainbows lead 4-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Captain Phil “Sandy” Donohue will need a few tricks up his tight-fitting sleeves to beat the defending champion Dark Rainbows.
\nEli\u2019s Pick: <\/strong>Dark Rainbows
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong>\u00a0Dark Rainbows.\u00a0 Phil couldn’t possibly fit anything up his sleeves with those guns!<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears South, 4:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous leads 1-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Martin Cejka of the Sky Fighters is currently tied for the league lead with six goals.\u00a0 Paul “Ashy Larry” Vernon sparked a four goal second half outburst last week to seal Filthy Gorgeous’s first win.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous.\u00a0 They are going from ashy to classy.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong>\u00a0Sky Fighters.\u00a0 I’ll say it again: Martin is good.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Moffo, 4:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Fresh Kills lead 4-3
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Will the Rehabs suffer a letdown after winning the much (self) hyped\u00a0“$howT!m3 Revenge Game”?\u00a0 Alex “Villano VI” Zabala has already given Fresh Kills plenty of semi-coherent bulletin board material.\u00a0
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Rehabs
\nDerek\u2019s Pick: <\/strong>Rehabs.\u00a0 Last week, as he’s just about to leave the Johnson’s, Romeo stared maniacally into my eyes, and declared, “Never pick against us again.”\u00a0 One of the scariest moments of my life.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears South, 5:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> First Meeting
\nGame Notes: <\/strong>Despite their similarity in having\u00a0two of the less intimidating mascots in the league, these teams seem to be heading in opposite directions.\u00a0 After a scoreless tie in week 1, the Mighty Squirrels have rebounded with\u00a0two tough wins in a row and a case of beer to boot (which Andrea “Vegetable Lasagna” Schloeder surely will).\u00a0 The Happy Little Elves have followed a first week win with two consecutive losses and a hazy future regarding their team name.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Mighty Squirrels
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Mighty Squirrels.\u00a0 Much has already been printed about the Squirrels’ new goalie, Tommy Mayoros, but the real difference this season could be star forward Al Sansoni.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Moffo, 5:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Denim Demons lead 2-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> This game features two of the media’s favorite captains to mimic.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Cobra Kai.\u00a0 They really need to get a win.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Denim Demons<\/p>\n
\nEli:<\/strong> 16-8
\nDerek:<\/strong> 17-7<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
