The New York Americans around their alternate captain Janser have played eight games and show a 4-2-2 record, good enough for fourth place in the North American Conference. The Swiss defender has had a somewhat inconsistent start, but is still par for the course to match last season's offensive numbers. We will now showcase two games the Americans played. A New York team who by the way is considered by pundits to be one of the contending teams in the league. It certainly helps to have the most recent Clegane Winner 36xW between the pipes who was FISTED ANALLY BY A CIRCUS MONKEY in the Stolzschweiger voting by the powers to be. The jury considered the cocky greenskin Grimgor Ironhide to be the better choice.

 

6-1

In our first featured match, the team out of the Big Apple took the squad from the City of Angels for a ride in a 6-1 landslide win. Especially Analfist had a field day with the Californian defence, which barely deserved that name in this encounter. The veteran forward scored a hattrick in the span of two minutes, with the first marker coming on the man advantage. That was all the goals for the first period. In the second frame, retiring center Lecavalier re-installed the three goal lead ten seconds after Swearingen scored a goal for the Stars. In the final twenty minutes, Jeannot and Analfist with his fourth of the night but the last nails into Los Angeles' coffin. The three Stars were awarded to Analfist (4g/2a), Yvel (0g/4a) and Jeannot(1g/2a). Sophomore netminder 36xW (.950) dominated McCagg (.891) in the duel in the crease, with the latter finally getting a chance as a starter for the West Coast outfit. The Americans' power play was decent (1/4), while their box play was immaculate (4/4). This is a good foundation for success.

Janser left the ice with a 0g, 0a, -1, 4 PIM (Interference, Holding, obviously no effect on the score), 2 hits and 1sb record

Kagamine logged 0g, 0a, +5, 0 PIM, 0 hits and 2sb

 

4-5 (SO)

The next game we feature was much closer with the bitter end for the Empire State team against their adversaries from Illinois. New York was off for a bad start when they allowed two goals in the first twenty minutes. In the second period, Davis with his first of the season cut the lead in half, before Chicago reinstated their advantage. Alas, the Americans came back with a vengeance and scored back to back goals with Mancini and again Davis finding the back of the net. In the third frame, both teams scored a goal each with Amish scoring for the red, white and blue. The game went into overtime and because neither goalie conceded a goal it was time to throw a dice in the penalty shoot out, which Chicago took home. Davis (2g/2a), Trunov (3g/0a) and Amish (1g/2a) were given the post-game honours. 36xW (.882) had to bow to Artyomov (.913) in a rather underwhelming netminder competition. New York's special teams contributed heavily to the defeat with 0/6 for the power play and 3/5 for the penalty killing.

Janser was noted with 0g, 3a, +1, 2 PIM (Roughing, no goal scored in the ensuing Chicago power play), 1 hit and 1sb

Rin had 0g, 0a, +1, 2 PIM (Holding, lead to a goal against), 1 hit and 0sb to her name.

 

And here are the stats for 'The Beauty and the Beast' for the season:

Kagamine: 8gp, 2g, 0a, 2pts, +4, 10 PIM, 7 hits, 15sb, 1ppg, 1gwg

Janser: 8gp, 1g, 6a, 7pts, +2, 18 PIM, 23 hits, 12sb, 0ppg, 0gwg

 

We will report from these two defenders in due course, meanwhile please find some related articles down below.
