The season has started and our intrepid heroes have played four games yet. Calgary sports a rather underwhelming 1-2-1 record, the same as the Phantoms in the European conference. We picked one game each for the brothers to feature in this edition of the 'Swiss Central Gazzette'.

 

3-8

In their second game of the season the Wranglers faced the Stars in 8-3 slug fest. The captain opened the score after only 22 seconds after the first face off. The Swiss veteran won the face off in the neutral zone and passed the disc to AG. The blue liner passed to VLG, who shot and missed the net. Dan dug out the orphaned puck and beats Vanderlay backhand above the pads. Wolanin and Gonçalves increased the lead to three before LA scored for the first time. VLG then reinstated the 3 goal advantage. However, the Stars had the last say in the first period, when they scored the first goal in power play. The Californians then smelled blood when the came within one goal as the scored another marker on the man advantage. Alas, VLG and Wolanin with Calgary's first successful power play set the record straight. The Quèbec native Laroche-Gagnier scored his third goal for the night. This is when Art has had enough and made room for the LA back up netminder. Daniel then made sure that not even said reserve goalkeeper has a mini shut out. First VLG tried his luck but missed the goal, Torbjorn picked up the loose biscuit and fired away, off target. The Swiss Center was first on the puck and had not more luck with his attempt than his team mates. AG brought the disc into the danger zone once more, where Dan finally was able to beat the goalie top shelf. Throw enough shit at the wall... That was the end of the match. The three stars were awarded to Janser (2g/3a), VLG (3g/2a) and GoodBrandSun (0g/4a). Dilson (.921) was clearly better than Vanderlay (.781) but had to concede to LAS-G2 (.947) with a rather small sample size. Calgary's power play was decent (1/4), their penalty killing could do with some TLC (3/5).

Daniel left the ice with 2g, 3a, +5, 7 hits, 1sb and a 58.49FO%

 

2-5

Prague managed to spoil London's Champion-banner-raising fun when they handed out a 2-5 defeat. It certainly was a special game for Marcel, who just the season before helped United to win said Cup. Now he assisted in kicking their ass and maybe some regrets were felt to have let him go. The first period saw no change on the score board. In the second period, Prague scored two back-to-back goals by Greg and Jameson. London pulled one back shortly before the frame ended, to keep it a one goal game. The cheers were shortlived though, as Kauppi profited from a Holding penalty against Womp Jr. The Bri'ish cut the lead back to one, before Laperriere scored a deuce, the first one into the vacated net. The post game distinctions were given to Laperriere (2g/1a), Jameson (1g/1a) and Kauppi (1g/1a). Murdock (.946) was the better netminder in the battle between the posts against Kanou awardee Teno (.900). The Czech power play was deadly (1/2) while their hardly tested penalty killing unit shut the shop (1/1).

Marcel was recorded with 0g, 2a, +1 and 1sb

 

Here are the brothers' stats for the season:

Marcel: 4gp, 1g, 3a, 4pts, +0, 0 PIM, 2 hits, 9sb

Daniel: 4gp, 3g, 4a, 7pts, +5, 6PIM, 19 hits, 2sb, 1ppg, 60.24FO% and 1 First Star award.

 

We will revert with news as they unfold. Stay tuned.
