CFHL Week 14

Nearing the All Star Break, here is the Week 14 action...

Who Gives a Puck vs. Goon Crew 5-3
It wasn't as much as the Puck beating the Crew as it was the Crew beating themselves with terrible Goalie play as Lundqvist ate a dick most of the week.  He gave up 7 goals on Tuesday!  Dubnyk didn't do much better giving up 10 goals in three games.  Puck did dominate in both FOW with 181 and assists with 29, leading all teams.  Sid "The Kid" Crosby lead with 6 assists and a +7.  
Yep...that's about right.

AshBusters vs. Checkers 6-3
The AshBusters continue to roll and the Checkers back on the skid.  AshBusters victory pulled them into first place in the Smythe Division by 2 points.  The Checkers had trouble trying to find the net, tallying only 3 goals.  Brent Burns the Bearded Wonder continued his unbelievable season as he netted 2 more goals for 19 on the season, leading all defensemen and hell most forwards for that matter...
Wolf Man having career season...

Assassins vs. USSR 6-3
The Assassins halted the assault of the Soviets were beginning to put on the CFHL.  The Assassins after starting 0-2 haven't lost a game yet, going 11-0-1 and lead the league.  The Assassins have always been strong in net, this week with Bobrovsky and Gibson.  Each had a 2 wins and combined for a 1.54 GAA.  Flip side was the USSR goalies as they only had one win and a putrid 6.20 GAA.  This after going 6 wins and a 2.00 GAA last week...
Bobrovsky has been key to Assassin's streak

White Mambas' vs. Mayhem on Ice 7-2
The White Mambas have quietly became a decent hockey squad knocking off one of the top teams in the Smythe.  They did it in impressive fashion, with a week leading 13 goals, 5 PPG, and 7 goalie wins between net minders Jones and Murray.  Malkin had 4 goals and 4 assists for the Mamba and D man Shattenkirk had 3 goals...Mayhem couldn't find a win with their net minders as they were crippled with only one starting goalie.
Malkin leading the Mambas

Krampus Carols vs. Slow Icin'  5-4
The Krampus Carols bounced back after last weeks loss to defeat the hapless Slow Icin'.  Mark Stone lead the Carols with 3 goals and both centers, Duchene and Scheifele had 2 goals.  They did win Goalie wins with only 2 but lost both GAA and SV% thanks to some pretty brutal play by Jake Allen who had a GAA of 9.53 and SV% of .600.  Slow Icin' had the same trouble as the Checkers in finding the back of the net with only 3 goals.
Is the Krampus back?

Anything can happen yet, with 9 more weeks to go.  Assassins are pulling away in the Norris, but with the Crew fading, it has opened up the door for the Mambas and Who Gives a Puck.  AshBusters and Mayhem seem to have the Smythe in control, but with the surge over the past 4 weeks by the USSR, they are in the mix too.  Krampus would need to put some more wins together and Slow Icin' with only 3 wins seems like a long shot.

This next week is a long one going through the All Star Break ending February 5...
