This Week is Gr(8)

Slapshot Vs. Legends/Irwins
With both teams coming off disappointing losses last week, each wants to get back to their winning ways. The magic number for this game is 2. With both teams each having just 1 win, someone will have 2 at the end of the night....or not. A tie is a possibility, but I see this with a score of 2-0 in Irwins/Legends favor. Irwins/Legends by 2.

MP Security Vs. Bearings
With an undefeated MP team coming into tonight's game, everyone wonders can they be beat. The Bearings players believe they can knock down the champs this week with the wrecking force of their powerful offense. I think an overconfident MP team shows up and takes Bearings for granted. Broadbent of Team MP Security has added some very new, lightweight skates to his arsenal and stated yesterday "They can't catch me". Although I believe he will be quicker, it won't be enough. Bearings by 1.

Alien Mike Vs. YDD/Coke
Big game here for a shot at 2nd place. Alien Mike has been the silent team slowly moving up the ranks. With Alien Mike goaltender Barker coming off a 3-2 loss last week, he is determined to have a better game. This is the first ever match up between Coke/YDD & Alien Mike, so the outside of each team watching game film, its anybody guess as to what happens. My guess is Alien Mike by 2.

Alien Joe Vs. MISF
Another first time match up occurs for this game. These teams have not yet faced each other and look to do so Thursday night. Alien Joe is working there way to a .500 record while MISF trys to regain its early season dominance. Another toss up game with alot of unknowns. Scott Kelley(Alien Joe) becomes the X-Factor for this game and Alien Joe wins by 2.

D League

Alien Hockey Vs. Cup O Kryptonite.
With both teams having new jerseys made (brilliant merchandising move by both organizations), the Alien team will have theirs unveiled this week. Cup's will likely not be ready, so last year's jerseys will have to do (they are soooooo 2007). Two very equal teams match up here, so the deciding factor goes to looks. Alien Hockey by 5.

11 to 7 Insurance Vs. B & B Lounge
Unless you scalp some on eBay, this ticket is impossible to get. Both teams bring a 5-1-1 record to this epic match up. This game is being broadcast on pay-per-view (only $49.95) in over 130 countries. The NHL went as far as moving the Wings/Pens game from the originally scheduled Thursday game to Wednesday as the NHL players wanted to see this game. "Our games can get tough, but nothing like you will see here" stated Crosby of Pittsburgh. "I'd hate to play either one of these teams." 11 to 7 Insurance by 1.
