\nMighty Squirrels (5-0-3) vs. Denim Demons (5-0-1-1)
\nLocation:<\/strong> Moffo, 6:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Denim Demons lead 3-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> The Mighty Squirrels are now the only team left in BTSH without a loss of any kind and have been one of the biggest surprises of the 2008 season.\u00a0 Although the\u00a0Squirrels lack a true\u00a0offensive superstar, they have cruised through their competition on the strength of their teamwork and solid defense.\u00a0\u00a0Despite coming off an unexpected bye week, the Denim Demons\u00a0were not rewarded with a lot of free time.\u00a0 After his team lost in a shootout to Filthy Gorgeous two weeks ago, captain Adam “Legen(d) Killer” Rubens\u00a0ran several extra two-a-day practices to whip his team back into shape.\u00a0 Since neither team has lost in regulation time or overtime yet this season, it’s only fitting that this game gets the “primetime” booking at 6 PM.
\nKeys to the Game:<\/strong>
\n1. In another cunning gambit by Squirrels captain Rachel “A-Korn” Greene, defensive stalwart Marie Marberg recently switched positions to forward.\u00a0 The move has already paid dividends as Marberg scored her first goal of the season last week.
\n2. In an unusual situation for such a successful team, the Denim Demons have used a rotating goalie system this season.\u00a0 Although Noah Farkas appears to be at the top of the depth chart, Zack Tinkelman and Steve Chernoski have both recorded shutouts between the pipes.
\n3. Squirrels\u00a0enforcer Sven Larsen will proudly unveil a new stick this Sunday, made completely of solid granite.\u00a0 Although the stick weighs close to fifty pounds, Sven claims it will add two miles per hour to his wrist shot.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Mighty Squirrels.\u00a0 The Squirrels are very familiar with the 6 PM Moffo game.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Denim Demons.\u00a0 By the way, I’m still waiting for my “Team Scrappy” shirt.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears North, 3:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Sky Fighters lead 5-1
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> What The Puck’s usually potent offense was held scoreless last week by the Dark Rainbows.\u00a0 After two straight losses, captain Larry “Mad Dog” Zimmer will have to revisit the film room to get his team back on track.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> What The Puck
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> What The Puck.\u00a0 Mad Dog is too crafty to lose three in a row.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears South, 3:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Fresh Kills leads 6-3
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Both of these teams wear blue.\u00a0 However, with Fresh Kills designated as the home team, Eric “El Guapo” DiPierri may get his long-awaited chance to play in a wife beater (and not be ejected for uniform violations).
\nEli\u2019s Pick: <\/strong>Fresh Kills
\nDerek\u2019s Pick: <\/strong>Fresh Kills<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Moffo, 3:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Tuques lead 8-3
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Mexican Standoff star player Ellery “The Nature Boy” Gillette is disappointed in the recent lack of game notes for Mexican Standoff games.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Tuques
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Tuques.\u00a0 Minkus has been waiting for this game for a long time.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears North, 4:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Unicorns lead 7-3
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> After finishing\u00a0with one of the lowest goals against average in BTSH last season, Unicorns goalie Craig (“Ug”) is still looking for his first shutout of the season.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Unicorns
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Unicorns<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears South, 4:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Dark Rainbows lead 2-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> The Dark Rainbows have won their last four games via shutout.\u00a0 However, regular goalie Trevor “White Jesus” Tyrrell is listed as doubtful with a shoulder injury.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Moffo, 4:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> First Meeting
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> The Happy Little Elves may be in disarray, as alternate captain Jonathan “The Barnacle” Levine has moved to Boston for graduate school.\u00a0 Although they have lost a very solid defender and team leader, they have gained a lot of personal space.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> LBS.\u00a0 Still waiting for that breakout game from The Alpha Male…
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> LBS<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears North, 5:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers lead 2-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> The Corlears Hookers have allowed just one goal in their six victories this season and are\u00a0operating with the efficiency of a\u00a0Soviet Olympic team.\u00a0 However, the Rehabs have won five of their last six games, and boast one of the deepest benches in the league (when everyone actually shows up).\u00a0 This 2007 playoff quarterfinals rematch\u00a0should be a dandy.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers.\u00a0 Because this should help motivate the Rehabs even more.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers.\u00a0 The action will be fast and furious in this one, especially since they’re playing on the small court.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Moffo, 5:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous leads 2-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous captain Monica Russo\u00a0is leaving no stone\u00a0unturned for this game.\u00a0 She has assigned former Cobra Kai player Paul “Ashy Larry” Vernon with the unenviable\u00a0task of creating full profiles of each of his\u00a0old teammates.\u00a0 As for new Cobra Kai\u00a0players Adriano Bratta and Paul “P.J.” Lopez, Monica has given the Pereira Boys the job of eliminating them “by any means necessary.”
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous<\/p>\n
\nEli:<\/strong> 41-22
\nDerek:<\/strong> 38-25<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
