Although at the end of a game the score is all that matters , the Dawgs found out that the final score isn't the only indicator of whether or not the game was a good one for them. The MoonDawgs played their first double header of the season. They faced some adversity coming into the game. A couple injuries and couple of people missing were just a couple mountains they had to climb. The first game showed the dawgs play tough but fall 5-3 to the Smart Alecs. Their first win still elusively evaded them. The goals were scored by Jon and Evan ...again!! However the lines showed more chemistry and all had scoring chances.
The 2nd game was against those pesky Tri-pods. The Tripods had blown out the MoonDawgs in the first 2 meetings. This game had all the makings of another blowout. The dawgs had just played a game and had little to no rest. The Moondawgs scored first for their first lead ever against the Tri-pods. In the end the 'pods won 6-3 but the game was a lot closer than 3 goals. The other 2 Moondawgs lines had a ton of scoring opportunites and played AWESOME. Everyone was working together and playing well. A lot more puck movement was the key and the close games gave the MoonDawgs confidence. Playing well has definitely lifted the 'Dawgs spirits. All of them are ready to play but will have to wait since the league is off for Memorial Day.
Highlights of the day:
Evan's Hat trick on the 'pods
Baker trying to fight Crazy Dave
and since I write this, My first penalty which was roughing , and also me goading the Tri-pods goalie into a penalty by tripping me !!
Good Job Boys!
