6-2

The one Vasteras we feature in this issue, is the age old derby against Stockholm in a 6-2 win. We do not know what happened here, as multi point goals of Marcel's are not that frequent, let alone multi-goal ones. Must have been something he ate. The Swiss defender opens the score on even strength after 42 seconds into the game. New fangled Vancouver prospect Puk, whose transfer from New York to BC created quite the uproar, wins the draw in Stockholm's zone. He passes the puck to Bridgers, who is knocked off the puck by Duk. However, Marcel is first at the orphaned disc, winds up for the big slapper and beats Clark on the blocker. Only twelve seconds later, the Vikings tie the game again. Enter Janser: On a power play move, Marcel hoovers up the dumped puck and passes to Young, Young to Love, Love shoots but misses the net. Alas, the disc travels via boards to the far post where Janser was already lurking, having anticipated the puck's trajectory. Easy tap in for the Rotkreuz native. With one goal each for Love and Bridgers and a further one by Stockholm before the first intermission, the opening frame ends 4-2. In the second period, Young has two goals to tally the final score of 6-2. In the last period it was clear that Vasteras did not have to do anything for the game anymore and that Stockholm simply could not. Hence, no further goals were scored and the Vikings had to concede. Janser (2g/1a), Young (2g/1a) and Bridgers (1g/2a) were named three stars of the night. Jute (.929) effortlessly beat Clark (.893) in the netminder showdown. Vasteras' power play was underwhelming (1/6) and the penalty kill was not even asked to dance (0/0), which is pretty rare.

Marcel left the ice with 2g, 1a, +2, 1 hit and 5sb.

5-1

The match we feature for the Wranglers is their 5-1 victory over the LA Stars. As his brother earlier that week, Daniel was on fire. But first it was team top scorer Kotkakoivu, who brought Calgary on the board mid-way through the first. In the 16th minute, it was Janser who intercepted a pass from the avid seafood enthusiast Murray. A quick lay off to Kotkakoivu, who relayed to GoodBrandSun. AirRig shoots but Vandelay parries at the expense of a rebound. Chicoine picks up the loose puck and releases immediately, the LA netminder stops the puck again, but fails to secure it once more. Daniel gets it backhand and roofs it. A mere 13 seconds later Dan beats the not enviable American goaltender again. Kotkakoivu wins the draw in LA's zone after an icing call. The disc lands with Reinhart who passes it on to the Swiss winger. Janser one times it and the netminder cannot relocate quick enough and is beaten via the post. 3-0 in the first period. The middle period has not even completed its second minute when Janser strikes again. Kotkakoivu knocks the puck off Elsby passes to Janser, Dan to Reinhart. The defender shoots and once more the Stars' goaler struggles to control the rebound. Daniel says thank you and buries the puck in the five hole. Third career hattrick for the Swiss forward, his second in the VHL. But the elder Janser brother has not had enough and smelled blood. Around the halfway mark of the second frame he scores again. Gonçalves, the Portuguese Wunderkind, intercepts a sloppy pass from Kowalski and relays the biscuit to veteran defenceman Jokinen, who passes it on to rookie Maloish. The Bermudan gives it to Janser, to Gonçalves back to Janser, tap in. Fourth goal of the match for Janser! Vandelay is clearly frustrated about the lack of support from his team mates. So much so that he converts his paddle to so much kindling. LA was especially weak in clearing out rebounds and Arts rage relatable. He skated towards the locker room as he apparently has had enough and lets the back up deal with this shambles. Alas, Calgary had finally finished scoring and the only side note to make is that LA scored a goal when the Wranglers' team pylon (aka GoodBrandSun) took a penalty for Holding and therefore spoiled CGY G2's potential shutout. The three stars were awarded to Janser (4g/0a), Kotkakoivu (1g/2a) and Reinhart (0g/3a). Calgary's goaler (.941) was significantly better than Vandelay (.821) but could not compete with LAS G1's mini shutout. The Wranglers' Power play was inexistent (0/6) and the box play untypically sloppy (1/2).

Daniel had 4g, 0a, +5, 3 hits and 0.00FO% to his name.

 

Here are the Jansers' stats for the season as of now:

Marcel: 29gp, 5g, 13a, 18pts, -1, 28 PIM, 26 hits, 49 hits, 4ppg, 1 first star

Daniel: 26gp, 14g, 17a, 31pts, +14, 37 PIM, 78 hits, 6sb, 5gwg, 1ppg, 55.40FO%, 4 first star

 

Please stay tuned for our next update.
