Tuck gives Brewers first loss of the season in a shootout.

Man was I pumped to watch this game. It was a marquee match-up between two SOLID teams, top to bottom, fat to skinny, bad to good, Bartline to Turco. Tuck jumped out on top first after a roughing call penalty on Dan "The MASSHOLE" Charette. Burkhart blasted a point shot past Petey B. on a nice pass from Turco. A couple of minutes later, Sean "Offensively Inept" McCabe made his PATENTED end to end rush with a perfectly placed shot right into the pads of the goaltender......I had to get at least one jab in on McCabe this season! I have a bit of skating ability envy of McCabe, I don't think I've had an end to end rush when there were actually opponents on the ice.....EVER.

The Brew Crew weren't about to lay down and tallied two before the period was over. The first came on a power play from a Lindeman hook. Bayley made a great pass out of the corner to The MASSHOLE in the high slot beating Ryan "Another Frickin' Fitzy" Fitzgerald five-holio. Christian Isaac scored a nice goal 1:24 later as he broke into the zone all alone and cut across the front of the net. Fitzy made a nice save, but Christian regained the puck on the far side of the net and slid it in. The best part of the play came from Garren "Rutland's Finest" Poirier as he let a pass from Chris Adams go between his legs to a streaking Isaac, sucking in the defenseman as he faked like he was going to play the puck. End of 1st, 2-1 Brewers.

Tuck tied it up with 8:24 remaining in the 2nd period when Adam Mantin made a Dipsy Doo to turn Kevin "" Calder inside out and then hit a pass across the top of the crease to a wide open Greenthal for and open netter. Where was Barty? No Flippin' Clue! In the Corner? Crying? About being a Virgin? You'll have to ask him. End of 2nd, 2-2.

Tuck went up 3-2 when McCabe got beat on a toe drag from Trevor Martin, and then had his pocket picked by Mantin on the return pass before Mantin beat Barty-Boy Five-Higgity-Holioki-Doki. With 9:57 remaining Turco split a couple of defenders at the blue line and feathered a backhander to Greenthal who beat Bartlebee while he was being hauled down. Bayley managed to get two more in the last 6:15 of the game. I didn't have the pleasure of seeing the two goals since I was collecting money from the DELINQUENT Storm Kings, but a source that wishes to remain nameless was quoted as saying "That was probably one of the nastiest goals that I HAVE EVER SCORED....shinny hockey, big games, any game!!!!" Apparently Bailey did "some sort of spinning pirouette jump thingy where he spun around like a ballerina and then did something else......I kind of didn't really see it" Sean McCabe said. So those two goals tied it up. End of Regulation, 4-4.

The Shootout went like this.

B: Bayley SCORED....probaby a nasty pirouette kind of goal.
T: Hanbury MISSED, probably going too fast.
B: Isaac MISSED, probably tried to make 53.5 moves.
T: Turco SCORED, probably 5-HOLIO on Bartholemew.
B: Adams MISSED, probably fell down.
T: Mantin MISSED, probably lost the puck.
B: C.J. MISSED, was probably thinking about his celebration.
T: Martin MISSED, Barty's snaggle tooth probably distracted him.
B: Walshy MISSED, probably had a minor heart attack.
T: Kennedy SCORED, probaby between the gaping hole.
