UPPER VALLEY HOCKEY LEAGUE

Jacks Dominates Whalers...I mean should.

ODDS:	Tuck by 7
OVER/UNDER:	11 Goals

The downtrodden Whalers look for their first win of the season against a high flying Lumberjacks team who has dominated them twice by the score of 9-2. In both games the Whalers played good hockey through 2 periods and were in both games but tend to fall apart in the third period.

The Jack's are powered by a trio of Woodstock natives: Alex Brands (14 pts), Jordan "Magoo" McGee (12 pts) and Nico Brands (10 pts). Those three rank 2nd, 4th & 6th in the UVHL for points. The Whalers do not have a single player in the top 20 in scoring, but are led by the crafty Russell Teller (5 pts), who is tied for the league lead in points per game at 1.67 PPG with Nico Brands due to an injury and only playing 4 games this season.

The Whalers have let up a league low 69 goals this season in 10 games while only managing to put up 17 goals. Without their games against the Whalers, the Jacks have only scored 22 while letting up 21 and sit in second to last place.

It's the battle of the basement people...well more like the battle of the basement vs a team that is at the bottom of a very very deep well.

Can the Whalers make it interesting? Can they slow down the high powered Jack's offense? Can the Jacks put up 9 again against Lallier's Loveable Losers? We will see tonight...8:10 kickoff.

Lumberjacks Continue to Dominate Whalers

In the first game of the night between the battle of the basement, the score didn't get started until 7:29 when the Jacks Gary Laperle put the Jacks up 1-0. The Jacks would quickly strike again this time it was Tim Patten just 15 seconds later, put the Jacks up 2-0. The period would come to an end with Jay Zanleoni scoring with 27 second remaining and giving the Jacks a commanding 3-0 lead. The score could have been much higher but Whalers Kenny Lallier stood on his head with 13 saves in the period.

In the second the Whalers would get a power play chance they would get a PP goal from newbie Jordan Bashaw at 13:31. With the Whalers scoring and getting a little bit of life from their PP goal it was the Jacks who would go on to score 5 unanswered goals and completely deflate the Whalers hope. The goals came from Jordan McGee (13:11), Tim Patten (11:27,6:46), Evan Seely (5:19, 0:14) and the period would end with the Jacks up 8-1.

In the third the score would remain the same even though the Jacks dominated the play, then at 5:55 Jason Yehle would make the score 8-2 Jacks. The Jacks would add two more goals for insurance (Tim Patten and Jay Zanleoni) to give the Jacks at 10-2 win over the Whalers.
