\nLocation: <\/strong>Corlears South, 4:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series: <\/strong>Fresh Kills leads 9-5
\n2008 Result: <\/strong>Week\u00a015 – LBS, Inc. 6, Fresh Kills 3
\nGame Notes: <\/strong>As the #2 seed, LBS, Inc. was supposed to be in this game.\u00a0 They have looked nearly impenetrable throughout the regular season, and their momentum continued into the playoffs.\u00a0 In the opening round, they blanked Mexican Standoff 4-0, despite the absence of star player (and self-proclaimed “cleanest player in the game”) “The Alpha Male” Ken Poulin.\u00a0\u00a0They also weathered a spirited challenge from the Unicorns in the quarterfinals, ultimately prevailing in a shootout.\u00a0 As the #10 seed, Fresh Kills is the clear Cinderella story of the playoffs for the second consecutive year.\u00a0 After a mediocre regular season, Fresh Kills turned on the light switch for the postseason.\u00a0 In the opening round, they survived a 1-0 battle against the dangerous Martin “Ocho Cinco” Cejka-led Sky Fighters with gritty play and tenacity.\u00a0 They continued by stunning regular season champion What The Puck the following Sunday.\u00a0 Both LBS, Inc. and Fresh Kills\u00a0have been cornerstones of the league for several seasons, resulting in a storied and competitive rivalry.\u00a0 Although LBS, Inc. defeated Fresh Kills in their 2008 regular season matchup, Fresh Kills is responsible for eliminating The Corporation from the playoffs in 2007.
\nKeys To The Game For\u00a0LBS, Inc.:<\/strong>
\n1. “Hollywood” Jeff Lesser may be a star in some circles, but “The Alpha Male” Ken Poulin isn’t buying it.\u00a0 He warned, “We’re going to hand Jeff Lessy [sic] his ass implants back to him after the game.”\u00a0 Whether Poulin’s comments actually serve to motivate his team remains to be seen.
\n2. Karsten Pichon finished second in the regular season with 20 goals and has also added two more in the playoffs.\u00a0 When he is on, LBS, Inc. is tough to beat.
\n3.\u00a0Captain Sascha Puritz is always quick to note that Seth Wachtell has been one\u00a0of BTSH’s top goalies over the past few seasons, despite a limited amount of press.\u00a0 He is the only goalie remaining in the playoffs who has led his team to a championship.
\nKeys To The Game For Fresh Kills:<\/strong>
\n1. Alicia Walker returned to the team last week after a brief (and unexcused) hiatus to get married.\u00a0 While she does not score a lot of goals, she has already fit back into her familiar role as one of Fresh Kills’ top playmakers.
\n2. Dave Sokolyansky will serve as Fresh Kills’ offensive counter-punch to the scoring prowess of Karsten Pichon.\u00a0 Last week, Sokolyansky tallied a hat trick, including the game-winner in double overtime.
\n3. Don’t let Bob “Olmec” Weyersberg shoot.
\nEli’s Pick: <\/strong>LBS, Inc.\u00a0\u00a0Every time The Alpha Male has run his mouth, they have followed it up with a win.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> LBS, Inc.\u00a0 Fresh Kills’ playoff run makes for a very nice story, but I don’t think it’s in the cards for them to advance another round.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
