Five is Enough

Canadian Goose came to the rink a little cloudy on an early Sunday game at noon. The door to the locker room was not used much because 5 skaters showed up. Old and in the Way did not give much respect to CG offering to give them players before the start of the game. Then 9 seconds in Cheese let in a goal from the top of the circle. That charity was quickly resinded as Goose prodeeded to score 3 straight goals in the first period. Midway through the game CG was coasting with a 6-2 lead. Then at the tail end of the peroid Old and in the Way began climbing back with 2 shorthanded goals during the same power play. This let down woke up the tired CG team. They had been down this road to many times this season in which few players show up to a game and they did not want to go into a shootout. In the third the score was tied at 8, then CG netted 2 more goals to skate away with a hard fought victory after Old and In the Way hit a ton of posts. Silent was the winner of the jacket, even though niether jacket nor people were the in the rink. Silent had a hand in every point that CG scored netting 8 goals with 2 assists setting a Candian Goose record for most points in a game. When asked to comment about the record setting performance Silent said that he was happy to carry the team to victory. IB Robbie played the entire game with a stick blade that was broken otherwise Silent might not have taken the goals and points lead way from him. Canadian Goose takes the ice this Saturday against the second place Lincoln Station at 11:10p.m. for another stellar ice slot in which 7 skaters will show up to.
