CFHL Week 3

Week 3 in the CFHL:

Who Gives a Puck vs. Checkers 4-2

Backes...Captain or Goon?

Who Gives a Puck took out the 3-time defending champs Checkers to move into first place by 3 points in the Norris Division.  While David Backes didn't exactly light up the score board for the Puck, he did light up the Checkers players tallying 18 PIM.  Stamkos had a pedestrian 1 goal and 3 assists and 6 PIM for the Puck but was enough. Checker's goalies let them down again coming up 1 win short and only a .903 SV%  This was suppose to be the best Goalie duo when the Checkers picked Rask and Quick back to back.

Krampus Carols vs. AshBusters 4-2
The AshBusters had a nice lead in the Smythe Division but that was quickly erased after their defeat at the hands of the Krampus.  The AshBusters somehow lost the game even though they scored 12 goals to the Krampus' 6.  The Krampus did it at the blue line as their D-men of Fowler, Duncan "Cousin" Keith, and Victor "Give me more" Hedman, scored 8 assists and a +9.

Tis the Season for the Krampus!

Mayhem on Ice vs. USSR 4-2

Datsyuk had a big week!

Moscow still not happy as the USSR struggle once again.  The Mayhem beat them in 4 of the 6 categories and moved to within one point of the AshBusters in the Smythe Division. Pavel Datsyuk was the Number One Star of the game scoring 3 goals, 4 assists and a +6.  A bright spot in gloomy Moscow was Kesler and Tarasenko who each had 3 goals.

Goon Crew vs. Assassins 3-3
This was the matchup of the week and lived up to the billing, even though it ended in a tie.  The Goon Crew dominated the Assist category 20-8 lead by Getzlaf's 6 assists along with Marleau's 4.  Speaking of Marleau, he and Couture have been hot Sharks and combined for 2 goals, 6 assists and a +4. Seguin continued to be on fire scoring goals getting 3 more this week.  Malkin for the Assassins had 3 goals of his own and 18 PIM.  Goon Crew have been anything but goons, this week getting only 6 PIM all week. Maybe they should change their name to R.C. Lady Bings...

Couture and Marleau playing well!

Number One Star of the Week: Sergei Bobrovsky, Goalie, Who Gives a Puck, 3 Wins and .956 SV%
He posted a 3-0-0 record with a 1.62 goals-against average and a .956 save percentage to earn the honor.

Bobrovsky earned top honors this week

Match up of Week 4: Who Gives a Puck vs. AshBusters
A battle of first place teams has the Puck from the Norris versus the AshBusters of the Smythe. Stamkos vs. Crosby.  Kane vs. Pavelski.  Should be a good one!

Crazy Who Gives a Puck fan!
