This has happened to the Squirrels before, so they didn’t feel guilty when they skunked the Chupacabras on Thursday, 12-2. The Chupacabras had no goaltender, and several of their players were missing.
The Roller Squirrels led 6-2 at the break, and knocked in the 12th goal with less than a minute remaining to go ahead by ten, which automatically ends the game. The Squirrels skated without captain Ed Bager, Rob Myers, and Desmond Richelsen, who was serving a one-game suspension for an incident in the last roller game. Richelsen and Jon Magi were in the stands, cheering on the Squirrels. Juan Canchasto played his first roller game of the season in place of Bager. The next game is Tuesday, May 31, at 10:30 p.m. against the Fish.
