Seemingly on their way to an all-important, essential, colossal, upset win, Rocky Rocks saw their gaping 20.2 point lead all but disappear, David Pastrnak (3g) guiding his Badger Bob team to a 15.0 point performance; the Bobs back in the hunt as they trail their now-nervously-looking-over-their-shoulder opponent by only 5.2 points.
Badger Bob: 15.0 Rocky Rocks: 20.2 There were only three games on Tuesday and Badger Bob made the most of them, this crucial non-divisional showdown now edge-of-your-seat good with both teams skating into what’s sure to be a turbulent, possibly match-defining 13-game Wednesday.
Wild Ducks: 2.0 Central Red Army: 7.0 This advertised battle of 2nd and 3rd place teams is now a battle of the 3rd and 2nd place teams, the Central Red Army skating past the Ducks (and into 2nd place) on Tuesday, new-hire Ryan Suter providing the firepower in the form of a one goal, one assist, 6.0 point performance.
Ice Hogs: 12.8 Vegas Vipers: 21.0 The Vegas Vipers were the only team to find a point on what was largely a points-parched Tuesday, GM Miller carrying an 8.2 point lead into Day 3 of the seven-day Thanksgiving week.
Boulder Flyers: 3.0 Cherry Pickers: 8.6 An Alex DeBrincat assist was all that could be squeezed from this pivotal Probert division clash, the Boulder Flyers scooting one point closer to their opponent, the Cherry Pickers advantage reduced to 5.6 points.
Misconducts: 9.9 Bluliners: 12.0 The Misconducts netted 2.0 points but they were literally one-upped by the Bluliners, GM Hamilton and his B’s now leading this clash of FHL graybeards by 2.1 points.
Polar Bears: 14.6 SC Cobras: 8.0 By switching-out his team (again) on Monday, the Polar Bears are off to a fast start, a 3.0 point outing matching the 3.0 points netted by the SC Cobras, the Bears lead still 6.6 points with now, five days remaining in the week.
