Puck Drop with Tom McKrank (17-8-22)

Well it’s been a crazy first week in the Jst this week so let's recap everything that happened for Team Brigade and, of course, our boy from Saint-Claude-de-la-Conception, Oli McGee.

 

First of all, the Jst Commissioners approved a last minute expension to deal with the overflowing pool of undrafted talent to take part in the tour. Therefore, the Delhi Pickles was born to be the 6th team in the tour. Thus, this would force every GM to submit a protection list with little to no knowledge of their teams chemistry. Oli McGee commented “I deeply wish to stay with the Brigades. I like what I see in the locker room and I’m convinced we will have a great tournament”. 

On  last wednesday the 10th, General Manager Jacob summited his protection list which included the following players ; Rick Grimes, Daryl Dixon, Sadie St-Louis, Klaus Kraus, Lloyd Braun, Womp Womp Womp Womp Womp Jr., Alexander Minion and yes, finally, Oli McGee. “That was a quite relief”, Oli said, “I have already ordered a ton of custom hockey card of me me in a Brigade jersey for my friends and family. It would have been a waste”.

 

 

With all the paperwork and other office shinanigan behind us, the tournament could proceed And we quickly see how every reacted to the expansion draft. On day one of the tournament team Brigade would face team Warriors in a serie of three matches. Spoiler alert, they sweep the Warriors, outscoring them by 10 goals. McGee did collect his first point in game 1  by gathering an apple as he served a magnificent tape to tape pass in the slot to Ben Dover who buried it in a net left wide open by  Warrior’s goaltender Ash Spark at 1 minutes of the 1st period.

McGee would also inherite his first penality minutes.During a heated brawl in front of Team Brigade’s net. Oli litteraly axed Mini holding his stick like a baseball bat. Referee Unknow called a a well deserved double-minor for slashing. “It sucked, I took a bad penalty and let my team down. He got into my head, saying stuff related to my sister, curd cheese and a air blower. I won’t comment futher”… 

 

Team Brigade whent ahead and won both game one and game two with a score of 5 to 3. And then blew off to score 7 goals to 1 in the last game. McGee whent scoreless but played some strong defensive hockey.

Day 2 started with yet another matchup between the Warrior. After been blown away, the Warrior bounced back to win 3-2 as Team Brigade offered a poor performance. Brigade would go and loose 4-2 against Team Clue  and win game 3 4-1. Our boy McGee whent pointless thru the day. 

 

Day 3, Brigade won game 1 against Team Clue 4-3. On game 2 , McGee would finaly find the back of the net as he gave Brigade the W , serving Team Clue’s goalie Bill Nye his Bombay’s triple deck. Brigade loose game 3 to Warriors in an offensive festival 6 to 5. 

 

This conclude my weekly recap. We sure hope to see McGee’s bounce back and gather a couple points next week.
