Ice Demons unable to fend off Stars relentless attacks, lose 6-2

The Stars kept attacking through all 3 periods, beating the Ice Demons 6-2 in an exciting game, bringing the regular season record all even between both teams, 1-1-1.

The Stars goalie, Steve Bell, stole the show, making several great saves, including one that I would have bet Mitch's league pay on was in the goal for sure. Zimmy fed a nice pass to Zeke in the slot and Zeke got all of it, blasting it to the top right of the net....or so I thought. Nope...Bell made the save. Incredible. That was certainly something to send into the Versus network for the Monday Recap replay section!

"Where's the camera when you need it?" Bip got a few penalties in succession in the 2nd period, and at one point, the penalty box had 4 Ice Demons players in there, not to mention the two kids (Luke Blankenhorn and Brandon Babcock), who had to sit on the cones as there wasn't enough room on the bench. One of the players had to stand, even! And, if you can believe it, I was NOT one of the guys in the box this time. Actually, I had one minor tripping penalty that was hardly a penalty (but that's another story--lol).

The MDL is off this coming Saturday, but then returns the following Saturday, when the Ice Demons will take on the Bears at 10:45 AM (morning game!) to conclude their regular season matchup. The currently season matchup is 1-1-0. The Ice Demons are the only team that the Bears have beaten all season. The 2nd game was close, too, so I'm sure it will be a good game to watch (and even more fun in which to play!).

Check out Mitch's posting here concerning plans for the 10th anniversary season starting this fall. It will be quite interesting, I'm sure. Perhaps there will be an over 30 or over 40 league? Not sure what "Alumni" will represent. My vote: I nominate the Ice Demons stay in one league and move the Crunch and Pugs over to the "other" league. hahaha....just kidding!

See you on the ice late Saturday morning on the 24th!
