Game 225 (Aka 15 squared)

It was yet another game in the Season 84 VHLM season, as the surging Mexico City Kings faced off against the San Diego Marlins. The Kings trotted out their starting goalie, Henry Tucker Jr., who was seeking his 20th win of the season in just 32 starts, while the Marlins' goalie, Alexander Minion, was trying to gain some traction and avoid losing 8 of his first 10 games. Tragically for Minion, his losing continued. Halvar Torbjorn started off the action 8 minutes into the game with a goal assisted by Stroheim and Kauppi, and despite the Kings chucking shot after shot, only that one found the net in the opening period. The 2nd period was twice as nice, as Tottingham and Gonzalez scored within the first 8 minutes, and our residential fried potato secured a multi-point game by assisting Gonzalez's netfinding shot. With the score 3-0 heading into the final period, Mexico City did not ease up at all, with Tottingham scoring again just 14 seconds in and Kauppi finding the net after 3:14. The Kings finally took their foot off the gas and coasted to a 5-0 victory, but not before 5 of their players had a 2+ point game: Alexander Stroheim, Nikolas Kauppi, Tater Tottingham, Jason, and Doug Britton.

Game 219:

Houston Bulls vs. Las Vegas Aces 

 

For the fans who wanted a close game, they were sorely disappointed. The Las Vegas Aces jumped out to an early lead and rode that all the way to a massive 6-1 victory. The scoring started just 4:40 into the game as Fred Hampton scored his 25th goal of the season.  Once that puck hit the back of the net, the onslaught followed.  The Aces scored an incredible four more goals in the first period thanks to another from Hampton, a pair from Al Land, and one from everyone's favorite Ace, Juan Ceson.   Houston managed to score one in the second period, but the deficit was too great to overcome.  Las Vegas added a sixth goal for good measure in the final period, giving them a dominating and decisive 6-1 victory.

Game 223:

Philadelphia Reapers vs. Ottawa Lynx 

 

This game was the definition of momentum swings from the very first drop of the puck.  In the first period, Ottawa scored a pair of goals to jump out to an early 2-0 lead, thanks to scores from Kevin Kirkpatrick and Alexandre Forgues.  That lead was shortlived, however.  Philadelphia came back with a fury in the second period and score five unanswered goals to take a stranglehold of this game.  All the momentum the Lynx carried after the first period had evaporated and Philly was firmly in control.  It was a 5-2 game entering the third, but the Reapers weren't done yet. They scored two more goals to end the game with a 7-2 victory.
