Week four is in the books and we are starting to see a return to form for many of the teams in the IHHL. The Boston Benders toyed with the Milwaukee Monarchs this week before finally bending the Monarchs to their will. The Las Vegas Balla’s continued their winning ways with a slam dunk win over the Saskatoon Sasquatches. The Denver Demon Donkeys managed to kick the Cleveland Blackjacks to the curb, extending their winning streak to two this season.
Harpswell Mayors vs Washington Winter Warriors
The Harpswell Mayors were crushed at home this week by the Washington Winter Warriors. Coach H. Mac Cannon continued to roll all of his top lines in the match up in his bid to retain top seat in the league. The near 100 point blowout is the largest margin yet in this young season. Final Score: Mayors - 115.5 (2-2-0) to Warriors 212.3 (4-0-0).
Cleveland Blackjacks vs Denver Demon Donkeys
The Cleveland Blackjacks hosted the Denver Demon Donkeys this week; both teams looking to build off of their wins last week. The Blackjacks leveraged the home ice advantage early on in the week to build a small lead. It was superior play over the weekend by the Donkeys’ top line of T. Johnson (C, RW), M. St. Louis (C, RW), and J. Spezza (C) that ultimately won the day. Final Score: Blackjacks - 148.65 (1-3-0) to Donkeys - 160.25 (2-2-0).
San Jose Soviet Bears vs Seattle Wolves
With the San Jose Soviet Bears reeling from two consecutive losses, the Seattle Wolves were primed for a win last week. Despite stellar play by J. Toews (C), the Wolves never seemed to click as a team and appeared to sleepwalk through much of the match up. The Bears took full advantage of miscues and slow line changes to post their second win of the season and move into second place in the Conway Conference. Final Score: Bears - 145.1 (2-2-0) to Wolves 108.4 (1-3-0).
Saskatoon Sasquatches vs Las Vegas Balla’s
The Saskatoon Sasquatches, still looking for their first win of the season, hosted surprise powerhouse Las Vegas Balla’s last week. The Balla’s were bereft a coach last week as Owner and Coach Dan Hall traveled to Thailand to energize the team’s Southeast Asia base. Coaching the team by phone, Dan Hall was able to lead the team its third consecutive win of the season. Final Score: Sasquatches - 118.9 (0-4-0) to Balla’s 143.5 (3-1-0).
Milwaukee Monarchs vs Boston Benders
With the Monarchs looking to build on their first place lead in the Conway Conference, the Boston Benders came to town like a wrecking ball. Despite keeping the game close early in the week, the Monarchs became unraveled as calls against the team mounted. After the fifth consecutive penalty was called on the Monarchs Wednesday night, Coach Derek Heilman was overheard saying “ It's at a time like this, when I think all we can do is turn our eyes up to the heavens and say...Oh shit.” Final Score: Monarchs - 136.25 (2-2-0) to Benders - 183.8 (3-1-0).
Your Outtake of the Week:
