Piccolo Grande 1- Bruins 4

Civic Centre
Game 2 of the Traveller's Round Robin playoff
series for Piccolo Grande ended in a disappointing 4 to 1 loss.
The Double Dipprs outplayed the Bruins to a man save ( excuse the pun)
for their goaltender Andy "5hole"Sommerfeld who
has had better games.
On the other hand the masked man in nets
for the Burins had a great night stopping everything except for a sharp
angle shot that bounced off a stick in front and found the only hole
made available by him. The Bruins built up a 3 to 0 lead on a shot from
the wing that eluded an ill-positioned 5hole, a screen shot after an
attempt to clear the defensive zone was stopped and a short one-timer
from the low slot. Piccolo got on the scoresheet shorlty before the
end of the first period as described above with the goal being credtied
to the Captain Terry "Ragger" Pearce.
The Bruins added one more early in the second and that was all she
wrote for scoring. The boys from the Ice Cream shoppe pressed but could
not find the back of the net due to some bad bounces and uncooperative
carma but mostly due to the stellar work of the Bruin netminder.
