Bears. I told my wife about Stump's fall and she said in true Duffer style, "It is a good thing he is so close to the ground."  I told her Rich Storm said the same thing at Wild Wings.  Tweedy just missed turning in another shut out, but Tom "T&A" Ambrosia* took  a pass from his guest, Rich O'Hara, and walked in all alone on Tweedy.  He faked a shot, that got him down and swimming, T&A waited until Tweedy was doing the breast stroke, then he fired a shot over his extended leg pad to give the Whites their only goal of the night.  The Second assist goes to Formica for spending $600 on new skates and another grand to fly here just to play with us and sleep with Koss. I mean sleep on the Koss' couch. The Whites have been missing their leading scorer.  Robby drafted Brinks to help him coach his girl's team. 
Maestro had 2 goals with 2 shots from the point.  The Brain was expecting a pass off line to Beak or Harvey when he got burned.  Tom "Dimples" also had a pair of goals.  One of them came when he was trying to pass and the puck fell off of his stick and flipped into the net.  Tom "TO" O'Connor had the only meaningful goal of the night when he buried a one timer that culminated some great passing between Ken "Grandpa" Lopatka and Dimples.  Tommy passed to Ken, who returned it to Tom, then Tom fired a hard pass across the crease that TO fired into the back of the net.  The Brain was tired of moving back and forth.  V-Man scored the 6th goal for the Reds when he roofed one off of the crossbar and into the net.  I can't remember any assists, and Chris "Berserk" Mizurk, din't try to claim it as he sometimes does.  Final: Reds 6, Whites 1.  Frank had another fine game. He appreciated the big turn out.  Tumblin Terry had his scoring streak end and he didn't have any memorable falls. BTW's Guest, Javelin Jeff had an unassisted Klinger Krash when he crashed to the ice and his stick went flying like a Javelin.** 
*Wikipedia tells me that Ambrosia is fragrant, and may be used as perfume.  I don't think that will sell..  It went on to say that the consumption of Ambrosia was typically reserved for divine beings.  I closed that link and went back to composing the Duffer News   **A javelin is a light spear designed primarily for casting as a ranged weapon.

Perfect Attendance Drops to 10! (7 have Perfect Attendance at Wild Wings)  See Page 2

The Following Duffers have Perfect Attendance:
Greg "Beak" Lopatka, The Bookie, Dimples, Fruit Cake, Bill 'Klinger" Giffune, John "Magoo" Landry, "Tumblin" Terry Nance, V-Man (Tomato seed) Mike "Rich Storm" Presecky and Tom "T&A" Ambrosia.

The flying javelin reminds me of a men's league game in Naperville in the 1970s.  That is the first time I ever played in a league and up until that time, I was playing Duffers Hockey with Nester Johnson skates that I bough at a garage sale for $6.00, a plastic street hockey blade and my son's adjustable helmet.  The referee made me get a wooden stick before I could play.  We had a guy called "The Cop" who got mad when a referee of color called a penalty on him. As the ref went over to the scorer's cage, (It was a cage back then, because the rink was surrounded by cyclone fencing)  Paul threw his stick like a javelin at a ref and it stuck in the cyclone fencing near the scorers box.   Paul got an extra 10 minute Misconduct for that bad throw.  It is a good thing his gun was locked up in the locker room.
For all of you youngsters out there, We didn't have glass in hockey rinks back then.  Ask Frank about the time

he got hit in the head with a puck at the old Stadium before they had glass. 

If you haven't watched this 4 minute video, you will enjoy it.  It covers what we go through on Friday nights.

Road Trip To Pittsburgh
We have 24 males who have expressed an interest in going to Pittsburgh on a bus in March.  As soon as Brinks and Tony give me a date that will work best for them, I'll let you know. We plan to leave on a Thursday and return home on Sunday night.  The Rampage women were sorry to hear that we will not need them to fill any seats.  We have room for more skaters and 2 goalies.
