The 3rd Week in and it already feels like Summah.

April 19, 2025

Let us spring into spring and summer into summer. Summer into summer, what the heck does summer into summer mean? I mean really? This is how you start an article. Yes, this is how I start an Article.

You know what I like, I like Hockey. And honestly, the games were stellar last night. In the first game, a nail biter. Manville Pizza would come out against Votta Properties. In the first, about 4 minutes into the game, ok 4:02, to be specific, Manville Pizza's very own Ryan Degnan popped the cork. And if Dan Dussault would give me his roster numbers, I could give credit where credit is due. I just happen to know number 6 on MPP is Ryan Degnan. I cannot go up to Dan and ask for his digits. That would be weird. Any who. The next goal would be MPP again and you guessed it Ryan Degnan. Believe it or not, that was it. A good day for both Goalies. Frank Zabatta with the shut out and Mike Dussault only giving up 2. Pretty good game. Manville Pizza wins 2-0.

In Game 2. Final Touch and Quick Dam. Spoiler, this was a game. In the first 13 seconds, Shannon Caverly started the scoring. Just whipped the puck into the net. Was a beauty. In seconds, orange was on their heels. 4 minutes later, Final Touch would strike again. A two on one, yep me, would result in Eric Campbell, would bury the biscuit. A perfect pass from Domenic Savastano. And guess what, Final Touch with 2 minutes left in the first would make it 3 unanswered. This time it would be Andrew Laird from Shannon. Son of b looked me right in the eye and put it in the net. In the second, Quick Dam stopped the bleeding. Or did they, another hemorrhage began. 2 goals in one shift by Final Touch, Domenic would get the goal of his own. Then another goal, this from Derrick Antunes. But wait there is more. Still in the second, Quick Dam got on the move. Mark Kosinski got put one past from Rick Mercuri's keep in. In the third, Johnathan Murphy got the motor running. Murphy would get 2 goals to make it interesting. My Boo, Raphael would game the game tying goal. And with less than 2 minutes to go, Murphy would complete his hat trick with the game winning goal. 6-5 Quick Dam. What a game. 

Late Game everyone. Here we are. Vescera Law v. Green Goddess. You know I heard the story about how Green Goddess got its name. (is this going to be a long story Matt? ) yeah, so sit down and listen. Apparently, back when pot was not so legal, or legal at all, Eric Robichaud had a friend who used Green Goddess as a code word for burning the hippy lettuce. Turns out, that dude owns a certain company that rents jet skis in Clearwater Florida. Turns out, it was the same place we rented jet skis last weekend. Had we known..... you do the math. In any event. Next time. And now back to the hockey (in your head, think Casey Kasem's voice). Here we go, Tyler Anderson would start the scoring for Vescera Law. In the second, Goddess's Dan Fraser would put the pill in the bottle. Goddess would get another. Vescera would get on the board to tie it up. Again Mr. Anderson. (Matrix). And another to complete the Hatty. Late, Shane McShane Shane McCormick would get involved. Making this a 4-2 game. Billy Billy Billy would hurt his shoulder, hope you are ok bud. The third belonged to Goddess. Garret and Gary would (Reilly and Ouilette) would get a goal each to tie this one up and stay that way. 4-4 (but who won Matt?) the fans readers, the fans. 

Ok folks, hope you all have a wonderful week. Also, a very Happy Easter. Now sometimes the question comes up, what do eggs have to do with Easter. Let me tell you. In order to keep eggs from going bad during the lent fasting, people would boil them. Once lent was done, they would finally be able to eat eggs again. They used it as a celebration. King Edward the 1st would have the eggs painted or leafed in gold and distributed to his entourage to celebrate Easter. So there you have it. 

We will see you next week. 

Live, Breathe, Love..................................HOCKEY!!!!
