CFHL Week 2

 

Six, Seven, Six, Seven is what the kids say today.  What it means I have no idea, but this week in the CFHL its Four, Three, Four, Three as every game ended 4-3.

Goon Crew vs. Space Monkey 4-3

This game was back and forth and Auston Matthews huge 5 goal performance helped the Space Monkey to keep it close and with all their D players playing Sunday almost caught the Goon Crew in blocks.  Mika Zibanejad had a hat trick during the Winter Classic for the Crew.

White Mambas vs. Assassins 4-3

The Mambas dominated the offensive stats including getting 20 goals!  They had 4 skaters with 4 goals each and Nathan MacKinnon had a monster week going 4-6-3-3-2!  

Slapshots vs. Greek Empire 4-3

Slapshots get back on the winning track behind Ovechkin's 15 hits!  Will that earn him Goon of the Week?  The Greek Empire did have a strong showing in net with Juuse "No Goals" Saros and Dustin Wolf combining for 4 wins.

Krampus vs. California Raisins 4-3

In traditional Krampus fashion they are starting out on the right side of the win column.  They left the game battered and bruised from 50 hits by the Raisins, including 11 from Tom Wilson before his injury.  Montembeault and Vasilevskiy (these are not easy names to type by the way) combined for 4 wins vs. Raisins 0 goalie wins.

Who Gives a Puck vs. Checkers 4-3

Match up between the most winningest franchises in CFHL history the Puck came away with the win.  Again with no help from their net minders posting another goose egg in wins.  Of course the checkers led the way with 57 hits including an absurd about from Kiefer "Sutherland" Sherwood (29!).  Tyler Bertuzzi got a hat trick on Sunday to seal the win in Goals for the Puck.
