San Diego Loses Game 6

[Hoopydog 195]

I know the VHLM cup finals were a few days ago but I’m still gonna do a quick recap of game 6 to finish of my point tasks for the week. Game 6 of the Founder’s cup final was do or die for the San Diego Marlins, with the Aces up 3-2 in the series it all came down to Game 6, it was go big or go home.

 

The game got off to the worst possible start after Dogwood Maple fired home on the powerplay for his 8^th goal of the playoffs and to give Vegas an important lead. They must’ve felt like they hand 1 hand on the cup after William Futch also scored his 8^th goal of the playoffs to give Las Vegas a 2-0 lead going into the 3^rd. The Marlins were given a life line after Molly the Cat (amazing player name btw) scored just 27 seconds into the 3^rd to close the lead back down to 1 goal. Unfortunately, they couldn’t find that all important second goal and an empty netter by Blake MacTavish with 14 seconds to go seal the deal and gave Vegas their first cup win in nearly 20 seasons.

 

Its still a season the Marlins can be proud of, after all making it to the final is no small feat and taking the best team in the league to 6 games but falling just short of a cup is always gonna sting.
