Congrats to Moscow


Recommended Posts

The season is over and the Moscow Menace defeated a powerhouse Toronto Legion team 4 games to 2.  What a great job by a Moscow club that had to start in the wildcard round and battle from the bottom, roll through the difficult and stacked European league to face off against the most formidable offensive club in the VHL who also had the playoff’s hottest goalie in Joel Castle. 

 

 Moscow relied on their core stars in Axle Gunner @Steve who tied for the lead in scoring with 31 points with fellow teammate, Steve Lattimer @pugsood.  Defenseman, Obuz Schneider Canet du Bocage @Grape was spectacular in the back end and contributed 30 points in the playoffs.  

 

Up and down the lineup it seemed everyone in Moscow brought their A game all playoffs.   Jarmo Ruutu @jRuutu 28 points, David Rashford @Knight  26 points , George Richmond @badcolethetitan25 points, Leif Rengaard @Zetterberg25 points, and Jeff Lewis @nerji 20 points.  Their offense was unstoppable and truly took a team approach to defeating the mighty Legion.  

 

But let’s not forget Moscow’s goalie Olober Syko @Spartan .  He had to battle 21 games, the most in the playoffs and still managed to have a save percentage of .0920 despite facing over 200 more shots than any other goalie in the playoffs.  The most important stat than all was the wins because in the end that’s all the matters.  Syko won that coveted 15th win to capture the cup to a very deserving team. 

 

Congratulations to the Moscow Menace!
