Nords beat Kingers 5-4 in a shootout

Back to the basics, that was the game plan for the Nordiques after an embarrassing start to the season. The nords came out strong against a very good / offensive Storm Kings team as Mike O'Neil netted a breakaway from a sweet feathered-hail-mary-ass-luck-close-your-eyes-and-pray-the-puck-makes-it-to-your-guy pass from Kelly Park. O'Neil received the pass right on the Kinger's blue line, presumably because he was cherry picking and looking to selfishly pad his stats, but anyways, he made a great forehand to backhand move on Kingers fill in, Kenny Lallier, just one minute into the game. Poli "The Nightmare" Nightingale added another 7:20 into the first on a nice pass from Ian "Snaggletooth" Coates. The Storm Queens....I mean Kings punched in a couple minutes later when Dean Cashman made a nice pass from behind the net to a wide open Ronnie "The Limo Driver" Dupuis who happened to be wide open due to a LAZY back check by an exhausted and ankle bending Park. The Nords finished out the 1st period on some kind of goal from their captain Tao "I shouldn't be captaining a bottle rum" Smith. I'm not quite sure how he scored, nor do I really care, it was probably some garbage goal after he slashed someone's stick to shreds, but the unprecedented part of it is that October 16th is officially Shawn McDermott Assist day, because he actually got a point on this play. YAY OFFICIAL SHAWN McD ASSIST DAY!!!!!

The Nords led off the second on a great unassisted breakaway goal by Richie "Will Meyer's replacement" McKenna. Then the Kingers got their legs under neath them and turned up the head scoring 3 unanswered goals behind goals from Robbie "Sean Coakley's Replacement" Barker, Marty "I have my AARP Card" White & Arthur "I didn't have a penalty tonight" Stout. I would just like to say that Marty White's goal was pretty sick as he entered the nords zone at a top speed of 2.4 miles per hour, faked a heart attack in the near corner to shed a defender, coughed like a leper in the far corner to shake two more defenders and then peed himself as he curled into the slot to rid another. He then let go some kind of shot, that I would call a hybrid between a wrist shot and a hairy eye ball to beat Turner.

Stout's goal should also be credited to Park as he was the one who actually tipped the slap shot from the point which resulted in a changeup that rolled past a horrified Turner to tie the game and ultimately force a shootout.

SHOOTOUT!!!!
The most fun in organized sports was lead off by Kelly Park as he Turned on the afterburners and top out at 2.5 miles per hour and stormed in on Lallier only to be shut down on a back hand move by am outstretched pad. Park was followed by an unsuccessful Tom "Cleanest Player EVER" Scull & Richie McKenna before Robbie Barker netted a nice one on Turner followed by a nice move from Adrian Melrose on Lallier. Stout followed with a border line embarrassing shootout attempt as he lost the puck tried carrying the puck backwards before throwing a high backhand on Turner. Mike O'Neil continued his player of the game bid by scoring on a nice move before rookie Garren Poirier ended the night on a nice save by Turner.
