Roller Playoffs: Squirrels 6, Whale 1

Posted on by

The last time the Squirrels played the Whale, the Squirrels barely survived. Playing without Casey Carpenter and Jeff Ford didn’t make it any easier in the first round of the playoffs, but the Squirrels still managed to regain their footing in a 6-1 win.

The game was uncomfortably even until a 3 on 3 gave the Squirrels some momentum. Stu Miller and Mark Tessar scored on that shift, giving them a 2-0 lead after the first period.

Tessar scored early in the second period, and Wes Gassert put the Squirrels up 4-0. The Whale found some life with a goal of their own, but Don Marks and Vivek Pinto also scored put the game away. The Squirrels move on to the semifinals, Wednesday at 9:30. They will face That’s What She Said, who beat Silver Spring in an 8-round shootout.

Ice: Strange Brew 8, Squirrels 3

Posted on by

The Squirrels only played with one sub Sunday, and though Strange Brew only had two themselves, they also had two sharp-shooters who combined for 12 points in an 8-3 win. The game featured one of the biggest crybaby moments the Squirrels have ever seen, when Michael Mcguire on Strange Brew threw a temper tantrum in the third period, purposely pushing the net off and then pushing it again. He received four total minutes. This was with an 8-3 lead and a minute to go.

Brent Machado scored twice, and had one goal waved off when he batted the puck into the net with his hand. Ben Sumner had the other. And yes, he whiffed on a slap shot with two seconds remaining in the game, much to the delight of everyone who watched.

This was revenge for Strange Brew, who previously lost to the Squirrels, 9-5, back in May.

Roller: Team Mylec 9, Squirrels 1

Posted on by

The Squirrels’ 10-game winning streak came to a screeching halt in the final game of the season Wednesday, as the second game of the double header left them with littler energy. Team Mylec took advantage, putting up 7 goals in the first period en route to a 9-1 win.

The loss could cost the Squirrels a shot at first place, as the Jesters’ victory can seal it for them.

Playoffs are next.
