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.

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!

The Moose, loose, Day 112

The last leg of the road trip went to far away Stockholm.

The game was won with 6-3.

Jetlag after 35 min flight?!

Is it possible to have a jetlag after a 35 minute flight? Maybe if we include the games the last couple of days/weeks. I can find no other explanation for the mediocre play the Donuts are preforming right now. A win in overtime against Niagra 2 days ago and now (only) a 4-3 win against Stockholm.

The Donuts did not exactly storm onto the ice in the first period, instead they lost it with 0-2. So in the 2:nd period they have to play catch up and found some ignition, by some heavy threats from coach during the rest. Jovanovski (4:th) and Zubov (9:th) tied the game in the beginning of the period and the Stumpel (9:th) scored the go ahead goal in the middle of the period, it looked like the team was on track for a big win.

But no... Middle of 3:rd period Stockholm evens out the game at 3 a piece. A gear shift again and Straka (19:th) scored the game winner at 14:35.

Broadway line 2 goals, Donut line 1 goal and the Rest line 1 goal.

First star: Straka for the game winner and two points (1G 1A)
Second star: Jovanovski (1G 1A) and 6 shots (tied for team lead), 3-2 corners and 16-3 passing.
Third star: Zubov (1G 1A) and 5 shots and 9-1 passing.

Next game (nr 40) will be at home again against Beverly Hills Lawmaters in 2 days. No injuriers to Donuts while Timonen will not be back for BEV. Nabokov is scheduled to start and the team must preform much better to win this game!
