The Icemen offense came alive Monday night and scored nine goals to beat the Dead Rabbits and claim their first victory of the season. The Icemen were lead in firepower by Kevin Johnson, who scored four goals and picked up an assist. Ryan Hebert also picked up three points with a goal and two assists. Dennis Flynn racked up hist first points of the season with three assists, and Peter Ciampi and Jeremy America each scored their first goals of the season. The Icemen improve to 1-2, while the Dead Rabbits fall to 0-3.
Defensemen Nick Cabral, who also scored, was quoted after the game saying, "This was a real fun game to play. We dominated them right off the opening face-off. We got the defense really involved in the offensive zone, which allowed our forwards to open up and get the shots they wanted."
Elderman forward Tony Bairos also spoke after the game. "It's about fucking time that asshole started making saves. He still sucked out there tonight! He's lucky we scored nine goals tonight. Hell I'm lucky we did so I don't have to play goalie for the next game." That's always positive feedback from Bairos.
Goalie Ryan Drew responded to Bairos's words,"Yeah yeah I know I played like shit again. That shouldn't be surprising anyone by know. I'm just glad our powerplay is starting to come alive and we're still getting players back from school." Drew made valid points as the Icemen's powerplay was red hot, scoring on all three of its powerplay opportunities. Defensemen Brent Leal was recalled from the Jersey Shore Guidos, one of the Icemen's minor league affiliates, before Monday's game in replace of Matt Reed, who missed the game for personal reasons.
The Icemen return to action Monday night, May 24th, at 10:30 versus Happy Hour. Happy Hour (1-1-1) come off of a big win against defending champions the Scorpions.
Editor's note: Next week is the expected arrival of defensemen Hunter Sennott and forward Ryan Peterson. Sennott graduated from the University of New Hampshire with a degree in Paleantology with a focus in Dinosaurs. Peterson graduated from Manhattenville University with a degree in Scientology.
