Surprise!  Tim’s The First Star Of The Week

Three Stars of the Week

Third Star: Rachel “A-Korn” Greene, Butchers.  In just her first year of organizing the event, Greene ran the highly successful 2011 Rose Charities Street Hockey Tournament.  We’re hoping she continues her efforts next season.
Second Star: Dan Hopper, Sky Fighters.  The Sky Fighters’ Yinzer captain nearly recorded his first ever hat trick en route to his team’s 4-1 win against Gut Rot.  Hopper finished with two goals in the game after already tallying one earlier in the day during his Mofo game.  He celebrated the feat with an I.C. Light.
First Star: Tim Brown, Poutine Machine.  In what may be the upset of the season to date, Brown shut out last year’s regular season champions, the Denim Demons.  This came just a day after he was the winning goalie in the finals of the Rose Charities Street Hockey Tournament (despite the notable handicap of having Rich Glanzer on his defense).

Shaun deLacy GAA Watch

This year, due to a series of stupid bets made by Happy Little Elves goalie Shaun deLacy, the media will track his goals against average over the course of the regular season.

Goals Allowed This Week: 4 (vs. What The Puck)
Goals Allowed Previously: 7
Games Played: 3
Goals Against Average: 3.67
Next Opponent: Mega Touch (2.33 goals per game)

For the second straight week, Shaun allowed four goals, putting him even deeper behind in his quest for a 2.0 GAA.    This week, he’ll face Mega Touch in the Hockey Night in Tompkins regional telecast.  Mega Touch is led by Adriano “Muscles Marinara” Bratta, who has three goals on the season, and the rest of of the Matzo-Masala-Marinara line (Harvey Jaswal and Julie Katz).
