Jerseys Arrive – With Wrong Logo

After six weeks of waiting, the new ice jerseys arrived – and they came with the patch the Squirrels use on their old black jerseys. They are still useable, however, and the jersey company says the correct patches will be sent.

Beer Bag Retired

The bag that the Squirrels used to put beer in.

It leaked. And there was mold. Yet the Squirrels kept using it. But they finally decided to retire it Wednesday. So long, beer bag.

Squirrels 7, Cruisers 2

As usual, it was a close first period Wednesday, and then the Squirrels ran away with a 7-2 victory against the Cruisers.

Dan Carter got the scoring started for the Squirrels with a slap shot from the point on a power play at 6:33 of the first period. Ben Sumner knocked in a rebound about a minute later to put the Squirrels up 2-0. With nine seconds remaining in the period, the Squirrels lost a face-off in the defensive zone, and the Cruisers showed flashes of good passing and put the puck in the net past Drew Thiemann.

Then the second period started, and it was all Squirrels. Matt Borlik Chris Wautel, and Sumner scored. The Squirrels took consecutive too many men bench minors at the end of the second period and at the beginning of the third, but killed off the penalties. Greg Wenograd scored at 6:46 of the third period before the Cruisers scored on a back-door pass to cut the lead to 6-2. Tony Richelsen added the seventh goal.

Carter and the Cruisers’ Andy Gardner got into a fight with about two minutes remaining in the game, with Gardner throwing punches. The referees, however, called both players with two roughing minors each.

Sumner, Carter, Wenograd, Borlik, Wautel, Thiemann, Chris Long, Tony and Desi Richelsen, Chi Pham, Brent Machado, Paul Kobernick, Rob Myers and Jon Magi played for the Squirrels, who outshot the Cruisers 36-17.

Squirrels 12, Nordiques 2

At 1:16 of the second period Tuesday, the Nordiques took a 2-1 lead against the Squirrels. Two minutes later, they still had the lead. Then the Squirrels tied it, scored three goals in 36 seconds and ran away with a 12-2 victory.

Tony Richelsen led the way for the Squirrels with five goals. Matt Borlik and Chris Wautel each had two, while Brent Machado, Rob Myers, and Paul Kobernick each had one. Dan Carter, Charles Wolstein, Ben Sumner, Desi Richelsen, Jon Magi and Drew Thiemann also played for the Squirrels, while the Nordiques played without a couple of their higher-scoring players.

The next game is Wednesday, Nov. 14, at 10 p.m. against the Cruisers.

Squirrels 5, Mighty Old Ducks 1

The Mighty Old Ducks could argue that they had a moral victory in the Squirrels’ 5-1 win Thursday, as they lost by only four goals, an improvement over two losses last season. Though the Squirrels controlled the majority of the game, it was only 1-0 after the first period as the Squirrels couldn’t score in bunches though the shots kept coming.

Rob Myers got on the board first with a breakaway at 12:51 of the first period. In the second period, Dan Carter netted a goal and Brent Machado scored on a deflection. Chi Pham and Ben Sumner added two more in the third before the Ducks got on the board.

There was one stat, however, that was even more disproportionate than the score: The Squirrels’ 30-5 shot advantage.

Sumner, Carter, Myers, Pham, Matt Borlik, Greg Wenograd, Brent Machado, Charles Wolstein, Jon Magi, Don Marks, Chris Wautel and Drew Thiemann played for the Squirrels, who improved to 4-0 on the season.

The next game is Tuesday, Nov. 6, at 10 p.m. against the Nordiques.
