Goodnight Fair Season. It is now time for the playoffs.
The long winters season has been completed. Winter is winding down. Although you couldn't prove it by the 10 tons of snow I still have in my yard.
I would like to point out, if you are playing in the summer, please give the league a $150 deposit. Secure your spot in the best league in the state.
The top spot goes to Vescera Law. Putting together a fine season. Final Touch appears to have the second spot, tied with Edge Doctor, but head to head gives Final Touch the spot. I believe. I will leave that up to the league officials. Either way, pretty tight at the top and pretty even all around. Any team can win the big prize.
Last night we had a couple of ties.
Edge Doctor and Quick Dam opened up the games last night. Cory Landi started out the scoring for Edge Doctor in the first shift. Before the period was over, Dillon Rabitor would tie it up late. In the second Jamie Murphy would put Quick Dam ahead from Jarred Martin. Late in the third, Richie Dias would tie the game again for Edge Doctor. See Saw stopped in the middle. 2-2 tie.
Game 2 had Votta Properties against Vescera Law. Kole Sisson opened the scoring for the purple people eaters, early in the first. Late in the period Vescera Law would tie it up. Neil Yee put the biscuit in the basket from Shane mcshane shane McCormick. In the second, the hero of the purple Kole Sisson, got the lead back, another solo effort. That said, Rick Mercuri got Vescera all tied up again. In the third, Kole only set up the leading goal. Number 4 got the goal. Midway through, Shane got the tie again from Ed Cardoso. All in all 3-3 tie.
Ok, Let's get into it. The final game of the season. This one did have a winner. Green Goddess Versus Manville Palace Pizza. MPP started the scoring, early on. Mike Thomas with the early tilt. Unfortunately, the second shift could not hold the lead. Green Goddess would get a goal off the face off, set up by Mark Kosinski. Kreg Labelle would get MPP the lead again, with Thomas on the helper. Goddess would answer immediately. A goal by Garret Reilly, the heir apparent to the Reilly fortune. Goddess would get the next one to take the lead. Mark Kosinski with the goal. MPP would tie it up again with captain Dan Dussault on the goal. Goddess would win the second with 3 goals. Kosinski and Garret with to of them and whoever was 3 on the other. In the third 3 more unanswered goals by Goddess. Raf Manzo and Iggy Gozman on with the big goals and again number the 3. MPP's Kreg Labelle would get the final goal of the season. Not enough with Goddess on the 9-4 tilt.
Stay tuned for your hockey times next week. Friday is Big, Saturday, Bigger and the following Friday, Huge.

The season is winding down and seedings of the standings now count.
I was told by Kole Sisson that my articles have been a bit flat lately. Apparently, my literary gifts have failed me as of late. Now there are two ways I can go on this. One, really make it nothing. Just strict reporting. This team beat that team. blah. Maybe that is the way to go. Or two, I can pull from my beautiful mind a soliloquy that would make Shakespeare proud. Let's try something in between.
On this night after a the blizzard of 2026, the quiet of the snow turned to the competition of the frozen barn. The 11 titans on each side of the drama that will unfold get ready to beat the other with sticks, blades and shear will.
Game 1. Final Touch and Edge Doctor, both teams are the top of the standings. Both vying to be the number one team of the winter season. This saga starts from the back out. Two goalies with the history of being the best in the league. Frank Zabatta for Edge Doctor and Mike Baro for Final Touch. Edge Doctor boasts a 30 goals against less than the rest of the leagued. While Final Touch has been on top with the most goals for. In the first period the pair did not disappoint. Some fierce saves on both sides to keep their teams even. In the second, Glen Medeiros got a rebound past Zabatta to break the egg. A minute later, Brian Cormier set up Marc O'Conner for goal number two. Final Touch's jubilation wound not last long. The next drop of the puck had Edge Doctors Shawn Smith pop in the puck from the middle slot on a set up by Captain Adam Babikian. Some fantastic saves and controversial non goal was the rest of the game. Final Touch held on to win 2-1.
Ahh, now speaking of the frozen barn. This next game burned it down. 15 goals in total between the 2 teams. 69 I mean 9-6. In the first is where this game really got cemented. Manville Pizza got off to a great start, scoring with a minute into the game. 4 goals by 3 players. Brian Roman and Sean Aguiar got it started. MPP brought in a mercenary number 8 Ben Hevner. who would score the other 2. In between, Quick Dam did score, Andrew Laird got them on the board. In the second, Greg Breirly cut the MPP's lead in half for the Dam and it was with that, they started their run at it. 88 would score for the Dam to make it 4-3 and this game took a turn of momentum. Chad Labaste who is Nasty got on the board to stretch the lead back to two for Manville. Doc Manzo for Quick Dam would get them back to a 1 goal deficit. What a game. Another goal by Manville late. Then a goal by Laird to keep in reach. Going into the third it was 7-5. Greg Briely would score in the middle of the third to make it 7-6. 2 late goals by MPP would put the game away. I mean late. like last minute late. 2 goals. I didnt see it, but I assume some empty netters. Anyway, Manville wins 9-6.
In this game, I told Kole not to disappoint me. I would not be mad if he didn't make a difference in the game, just disappointed. Especially when he said his brother feels like I could do better with the writing of the article. That garbage calling me out. I agree, I could do better. But now I don't feel like it. So, Keith this is for you.
Votta wins 6-3.
Haha, You thought that was it.
Ok, Votta Properties and Green Goddess go at it in the late one. No one loves the late game. This one got started halfway through the first. Derek Antunes gets on the board first for Votta. Mark Kozinski set up a sub for Goddess' first goal right after. In the second, Goddess took over and made it 2-1 with a goal by Raf Manzo. Derek Franco got Votta the tie and then the lead in the same shift. Late in the period Goddess tied it up with Manzo's second. And then Kole Sisson took over. Kole scored one late to make it 4-3. two more goals, one midway through the third and one late, both by Sisson to get his hat trick and make yours truly very proud. That is the Kole I know.
I hope this satisfied the Sisson family.
The Underground Unplugged is playing at TD's in Milford tonight. Featuring Mike Dussault and Eric Robichaud. 7-11.
I hope you all have a great week.
