I found time to get all caught up with the stats. However, it may be a week or two before I get caught up on all the game summaries that I usually do.

Once again thanks for your patience!

I know that I've been getting really behind in keeping up with this website.
I just took a few minutes to get all the scores updated so at least everyone can see the current standings and what-not. The individual stats are what is more time-consuming, so I'll work on getting caught up on those in the next week or two.

A few of you spoke to me last night about getting caught up with the stats. It's actually good to hear that you are interested and have been patiently waiting for me to catch up. When I hear this, I know that I'm not just doing these things for my own entertainment. Its cool to see that you care. :)

Your patience is appreciated!

In the early game between the Stars & Ice Dogs, Aaron Boelens, of the Ice Dogs was ejected from the game for receiving three minor penalties. This was the first time that this has occurred for Aaron this season, so he is okay to play in the next game this Friday.

I neglected to mention a few weeks ago that in the game between the Stars & Omegas that was played on Friday, October 9th, Glen Angle (of the Omegas) was ejected from the game for receiving three minor penalties. Actually he had four minors (two double minors) in the game. This was the first time that this occurred for Glen this season, so he was not suspended for this.
The incident that occurred when Glen got his second double minor was reviewed by the league to determine if any further suspension was necessary, but the league reps voted that no further action was needed. However Glen has been put on probation for the rest of the season and has been warned that a five game suspension was considered for his actions.

The early game saw the Stars beat the Ice Dogs 8-2.
Jason Hotke had three points for the Stars, while team-mate, Chris Helps had five points. We'll give the nod for the Player of the Game to Greg Wierenga. Greg had a hat-trick for the Stars plus added an assist.

The Hawks beat the Omegas 9-2 in the middle game.
Rob Nutma, Ryan Tamming, & Calvin Pelleboer each had three points for the Hawks. Dave Vanoostveen had a seven point game, but the Player of the Game is Kyle Huizinga. Kyle had a big eight point game.

The late game was the closest game of the night. The Flyers won this one 4-2 over the Cattle Barons.
We'll give the Player of the Game honours to defenseman, Mark Groendyk, who had two assists in the Flyers' win.

This is the summary for the games that were played on Friday, October 16th:

The early game was a battle between the two remaining win-less teams this season. The Omegas squeaked out a 4-2 win over the Cattle Barons.
Jonny Wagenaar is the Player of the Game in this one. He scored twice for the Omegas, including the game winner.

In the middle game, the Stars continued in their winning ways by beating the Flyers with a close 3-2 margin.
We'll let the goaltenders share the Player of the Game in this one. Kyle Scott, of the Flyers, and Codey Wierenga, of the Stars, (playing in his first game in our league) both did well to hold off the potent offense from the opposing teams.

This was a night of close games, and the late game was no different. This one saw the first tie game of our season. The Hawks & Ice Dogs had to settle for a 4-4 tie after a hard fought battle.
Former Hawk, Aaron Boelens, is the Player of the Game. He scored twice in the third period against his former mates.
