CFHL Week 13 Update

Here is the Week 13 update on the games from last week.  With 13 weeks down we have 10 more to go in the regular season.

Game of the Week:  AshBusters vs. Goon Crew 4-3
This game got close late.  The AshBusters were in control most of the week.  They dominated in Goalie categories vs. a team that leads the league in goalie stats.  Rinne led the way for the AshBusters with 2 wins and a 1.44 GAA.  The Game got interesting when on Sunday Niskanen scroed 2 goals for the Crew in the third period tying the game!  The night would go on, and no one else got any scores until the very end.  With time running out, AshBusters forward Rakell scored to tie goals at 10 and win the game 4-3.  Both teams put up stats in almost every category that would beat most teams...

Rakell scored the game winner for the AshBusters

Checkers vs. Slow Icin' 6-2
Checkers finally get a win defeating Slow Icin' 6-2.  There wasn't too many categories that were close in this one.  Checkers led in most scoring categories and it came down to goalies, and the Checkers finally found some good net play from Luongo who tallied 2 wins, 1.68 GAA and .949 SV%.

USSR vs. Krampus Carols 7-2
The USSR have won 4 in a row and have moved into 3rd place, only 3 points out of first in the Smythe Division.  What at one point was a weak point, goalies, Holtby and Ward combined for an impressive 6 wins, 2.00 GAA and .932 SV%.  Didn't take much however to beat the Krampus goalies.  Only Allen played and he had no wins, an 8.00 GAA and .769% and Robin Lehner was out all week with the flu...

Holtby has been red hot for the USSR

Assassins vs. White Mambas 6-2
The Assassins keep rolling and with the Crew fading have opened up a 6 point lead in the Norris.  Backstrom led the Assassins skaters with 3 goals and 7 assists!  And once again the Assassins racked up FOW with 141.

Backstrom...hmmmmm...

Who Gives a Puck vs. Mayhem on Ice 6-3
Who Gives a Puck registered only their 4th win of the year.  A big reason for the win was Brad Marchand for the Puck who racked up 4 goals an 4 assists and a +5. The Puck rivaled the Assassins in FOW as they tallied 136 for the week having 4 players taking face offs,  Claude Giroux getting 44 of them.

Marchand earned top honors this week for the Puck
