Donuts kills predator, Day 138

The team took notice of the coaches word and started to get to work again. When working as a team this team gets it done, this time 4-1! Not a 5-50-150 performance but close, 4-50-119.

4-1 WIS  3  10:36  Straka          40   Gomez, P.Boucher)         EST

Game notes:
* Souray a former Donut comes back to haunt.
* Doan and Langkow are the slackers in scoring and they are now picking up the pace.
* Donuts 2/4 on PP while Predators went 0/2.
* Straka first to get to 40 goals this season and just the second to do it all time, last year Doan had 43!
* Straka now has 102 points an all time high for a Donut, last year Rolston gathered 81 points in 80 games.

First star: Doan, 2G, PP, GWG, 5 SOGs and 6 hits (team high).
Second star: Straka, 1G 1A, 22-0 in passing and +1 on the night (shared team high).
Third star: Mason, 1 goal in 33 SOG!

Tomorrow a big game against Karlstad and the team is healthy, while Karlstad is expected to miss Modano.

Donuts lynch Lahr, Day 134

Much better showing of the team. This time it was almost the 5-50-150 hattrick (5 goals-50 SOGs and 150 complete passes). Lahr was very tame tonigt.

Game notes:
* Now 9 players have 20 or more goals but none at 40, yet!
* Straka tied with Rolston for scoring lead 39 goals.
* For once donuts took the lead and never let it go!
* Gomez was out and will be back for next 3 day/3 game schedule.
* It was a 5-48-151 game.

First star. Boucher, 2G 1A, 5 SOGs and 16-1 in passing.

Mason SO & Rolston HT win Moose , Day 132

It was time for revenge on the last game, the lost against Ibex. I voted for 5 goals, 150 passes and 50 shots, not quite but good enough.

What we got is 41 shots (against 20), 3 goals (against 0) and 133 passes (against 98). The big news is that it was Masons first SO in a Donut uniform. He has kept the around the .915 save average he came in with, his saves per games are creeping down (less shots), although I actually thought he would do better with the defense that is in front of him. Well, both he and Nabby will reach 45+ games and will qualify for 7 games in any series.

1-0  1  WIS  1  15:50  Rolston         37

3-0  3  WIS  3  10:05  Rolston         39  

Game notes:
* How about that Rolston! In the last 7 games he has been an army, scoring 11 goals! Jagr had the first half of March and went cold, now Straka has gone cold but Rolston is the savior!
* Rolston had a hattrick at end of February against Calgary (together with Bochenski) latest.
* Gomez injured for 4 days, it will affect the game against Lahr in two days but he is back in time for the 3 games in 3 days.

First star: Mason, a SO is a nig thing for Donuts only the third this year. The others are Nabbys. Welcome to the club!
Second star: Rolston, a hattrick is a hattrick even in Wisborg, 3G out of 3, GWG!
Third star: Niedermayer, 17-0 in passing.

Lahr in two days, without Gomez (ribs) probably Zajac will get the call. Yelle and Nieminen out for Lahr but they are marginal players. The odds should be in favour of the ´nuts!

Original Donut, Biron traded at deadline

On the last day before the trade deadline one of the real profiles in Donut-hockey was traded. Martin Biron has for most years in donut history been the number 1 goaltender. In the first year he alone took the team tot he conference finals.

It has been sad to see the the team first bringing in Nabokov to take over the no 1 spot and now Mason to take down Nabby to second. The goal tending trades this year have angered many fans who though the first mistake was to let Burke walk away and then trade Bryzgalov for Nabby. The fans have also heard rumors that Hasek would be a Donut and that would be really scary.

Earlier in the season Kilger was traded to Dayton left as original Donut are the Donut line, Langkow, Rolston, Doan and defensemen Ohlund and White. All but White are still regulars allthough the recent shopping of star has brought him down in rotation.

It is really sad to see Martin go says Mr Donut in a rare interview. He has been here all this time and if we go all the way this time he should have been there. But we greet Mason and hope he can take us to the top, Martin unfortunatly proved he couldn't this season.
