Generals 4 - Knights 3 (OT)

Game Summary

Another hard fought game between Knights and Generals with outstanding goaltending on both sides. Knights once again could not capitalize on chances outshooting the Generals once again. Knights started the game again with penalty trouble but manage to kill both PP's. Generals scored on defensive mishap with their player backhanding one in into empty net from the left side. Early in the second half Knights Clayton Weston tied it with a wicked shot from 15 feet out. Knights had one PP mid-way through the second half but could not capitalize. Gur "The Tank" Randhawa had a goal taken away even though it went of his stick. The ref'ing in this game was not very good. Generals then took a 2 goal lead in second half and with 1 minute left Knights scored 2 goals to tie it up. Midway in O.T. Generals centreman weaved his way towards the slot and put one through Knights goalie's 5 hole.

Defensive player of the game - Bill Lundholm
Offensive player of the game - Clayton "The Machine" Weston

Thanks to Bill Lundholm for playing goalie with Rob Kahle and Bal Mattu not available. Also note, Bal Mattu has recently purchased a premier set of goalie equipment and is now ready to take on full backup goaltending duties.

We are trying to get practice time in next couple weeks and during xmas holidays to prepare for battle against A div opponents.

Lest we forget our dismal performance the last few games and focus on fixing some of the issues. The practice is on Friday November 10 at 8:00pm and 9:30pm.

Ryan "I got game" Bhala, that's four things. I agree we need to do those things and we are doing it somewhat. With the scoring the 3rd line will start picking it up with Randy in the lineup. My 2 cents on the Hustle factor, need to play smarter and support each other all over the floor. We need to "recognize" opposition team strengths/strategies and neutralize their key players to take control of games.

Hustle factor also comes down to conditioning and we should all be doing our part during the week to get in better shape.

That means no big macs and boozing during the week.
