The Cherry Cup Final was a close one, as expected. Who Gives a Puck vs. R.C. Goon Crew. One team going for it's 4th Cup and one team going for its first ever.
The game was tied at 3-3 with the Puck up 10-2 in goals, but only up 1-0 in goalie wins and the SV % was close too at .861 to .828. Dylan Strome and Drake Batherson combined for 6 of those 10 goals! The Puck would hang onto all three of those categories. However with the game tied at 3-3, the Goon Crew would still prevail, as they held the tie breaker.
The Goon Crew had solid leads in assists (9-3) and in hits (16-10), but only led PPP by one (4-3). Radko Gudas led the team with 5 hits in the game. But just one PPP by the Puck on the last day of the week, Thursday, and the Puck would win the game 3-2-1. They wouldn't get one PPP, but they would get two! Drake Batherson would score 2 PPP Thursday Night to give the Puck the victory 4-2 and earned Cherry Cup Final MVP!
