TAKE NOTE THAT THIS WEEK'S (OCTOBER 29) GAME TIMES HAVE CHANGED.

The Cougars were unable to play the early game this week because of a Reformation Day service at Covenant. To accomodate this, we have changed this week's game times to the following:
8:00pm Stars vs. Omegas
9:20pm Crusaders vs. Flyers
10:40pm Cougars vs. Hawks

We have switched time slots with the games that were scheduled for December 3, 2010. This means that we will be playing the games on Dec.3 at the times that this week (Oct.29) was originally scheduled for.
Confused yet? I'll keep everyone informed as we get closer to Dec.3.

Even though the game between the Crusaders & Hawks was forfeited, the penalties will still be counted.

Jamie Feenstra of the Hawks received 3 minor penalties in this game. This is the first time that this has occurred this season for Jamie, so he is okay to play in the next game.

Dan Dykshoorn also received 3 minor penalties in the game while playing for the Crusaders. Dan happens to be the in-eligible player that caused the Crusaders to forfeit the game. His penalties have been counted, but he will still not be allowed to play until he is officially added to the Crusaders' roster on November 1, 2010.

In the early game, the Flyers came out on top by beating the Stars 3-1. For the second game in a row, the Stars found themselves tied 1-1 late into the third period, but with less than six minutes to go, Steve Capelle scored to put the Flyers up 2-1. The Flyers added an empty net goal to seal the deal.

The middle game between the Crusaders & Hawks was forfeited by the Crusaders because of use of an in-eligible player. The Hawks will take the win as a 1-0 score. The player stats will not be counted for this game, except for games played and penalties. Goalie stats will not be counted either.

The late game was a close one between the Omegas & Cougars. The Omegas held on to their lead after a late come-back attempt by the Cougars for a 4-2 victory. Mark Zylstra scored twice in the Omegas' win and earns himself this week's Player of the Week honours.

I apologize for being so late with this update.

In the early game, the Omegas got their first win of the season by beating the Hawks 4-1. Aaron Boelens got the Hawks off to a good start by scoring early in his second consecutive game. The Omegas were once again led by another two-goal performance by Lance Ross. Lance also got an assist. Zach VanReenen got three assists in the Omegas' win.

The middle game saw the Flyers continuing where they left off last week. Ryan Cross got two goals & two assists while Kev Karelsen got three assists. The final score was the Flyers beating the Cougars 5-2.

We had our first Overtime game of the season in the late game between the Stars & Crusaders. Goaltenders Josh Tamminga & Risser Wierenga were both on their game and held the game scoreless until newcomer Scott Park scored late in the second for the Crusaders. The Stars tied it up late in the third period and appeared to go up 2-1 with 20 seconds to go in regulation, but had the goal disallowed. Scott Park scored again in overtime to win the game 2-1 for the Crusaders. For scoring his first two goals in our league in a tight game like this, he wins this week's Player of the Week honours.

As some of you may have noticed, we have a new scorekeeper for our league. His name is Joe VanReenen. He seems to be catching on quickly.

Last week's games were all fairly civilized. Let's all keep this up because it really helped out Joe in his new role as scorekeeper. We don't want him to get in a situation over his head just yet. He's still learning.

Thanks,
Terry
