<\/a><\/p>\nColor:<\/strong> Purple\/White <\/p>\n Media relations director Albert “Al” Huang submitted a detailed press release regarding the state of the Corlears Hookers.\u00a0 Here are some of the highlights<\/em>:<\/p>\n Last year was a drama-filled season for the Hookers, featuring numerous\u00a0disciplinary issues, several\u00a0key injuries, and yet another disappointing finals outcome.\u00a0 The Hookers will return this season with a clean slate and the hunger to win it all.\u00a0 In the meantime, other teammates stepped up in 2008 to fill the scoring void, with Jason Eitel (15 goals, tied for\u00a04th in league scoring) leading the team in goals.\u00a0\u00a0 The\u00a0Hookers boasted one\u00a0of the deepest teams in the league, as every player on the team scored at least one goal.\u00a0 There were three players with\u00a0more than\u00a010 goals and\u00a0five players who scored at least\u00a0five.\u00a0 Furthermore,\u00a0Hookers forwards take a lot of pride in their two-way play.\u00a0 Last season the Hookers allowed\u00a0the fewest goals (22) and tied for the league lead in shutouts (6).\u00a0 With Captain Peter “Purple Rain”\u00a0Putka anchoring the blueline again this season, the defensive backbone of the team will remain unchanged.<\/p>\n Food They Closely Resemble:<\/strong> Kobe Beef<\/em>. Only the most elite and tender can be selected for this squad, which is followed by a traditional, strict grooming process.\u00a0 However, despite the apparent rigidness here, there has been a distinct surge in popularity in recent times.

\nYear Founded:<\/strong> 2007
\n2008 Regular Season Finish:<\/strong> 13-4 (3rd place)
\n2008 Playoff Result:<\/strong> Lost to Fresh Kills in championship game
\nDivision:<\/strong> Rubens
\n2009 Marketing Slogan:<\/strong> “This is Dutch’s team.”
\nKey Additions:<\/strong> None
\nKey Losses: <\/strong>Chris Beauvois<\/p>\n
\n\u00a0
\nNew starting goalie Dustin “Fake Dutch’s Brother” Olson\u00a0will bring a different vibe to the team from last season.\u00a0 His zen-level calmness, focus, and coolness between the pipes will usher in a new era for the Hookers, who have only known Chris Beauvois\u00a0as its goalie for its first two seasons in the league.\u00a0 There is no question that opponents will have to study\u00a0Olson closely to find weaknesses in his game.\u00a0 Over the past two seasons,\u00a0he often substituted in goal for Beauvois and\u00a0was undefeated in all his appearances,\u00a0including two shutouts.\u00a0
\n\u00a0
\nBrendan “Dutch” Kearney\u00a0will return\u00a0 to the lineup after suffering a horrible wrist injury\u00a0last season that required surgery and kept him on the sidelines for most\u00a0of the games. After rehabilitating his wrist during the offseason, Dutch has received clearance to play again.\u00a0 His\u00a0addition\u00a0to the lineup will certainly add to the Hookers’ offensive numbers, but it may take him a few games to get his touch back.<\/p>\n
