The Nov 14 version of Gator hockey saw your favorite bunch of selfish hockey players take on a new foe in the Penguins.  What can I tell ya about penguins... Hmmmm... 

Well, websters dictionary defines penguin as : any of various erect short-legged flightless aquatic birds (family Spheniscidae) of the southern hemisphere.

... they said erect

Well, they weren’t very ‘hard’ to play against.  We were due for a one-sided game after quite a few 1-goal wins over the last half dozen games.

Guess I ruined the story by inferring we won.  Well we did.  9-3.  It was close in the first though.  The Penguins actually drew first blood about 4min in.  Last game nacho-ruiner Scradley popped a gas station boner pill and tied it up shortly thereafter, and Lando put us ahead on a top shelf PP snipe before the period ended.  Shots were 15-12 and the Gators started the roll.

Zac and his salad put the Gators up by 2 early into the second, and Hutch made amends for his nacho-ruining first period PIM by ‘extending’ our lead to three.  The penguins ringer struck a second time before Lando went top cheds for his second.  Period ended Gators up 5-2 on a 28-25 shot advantage.  

Third period started with Buckley finally contributing something and getting that 4 goal lead back.  Don’t know why we keep him around.  Mitchell for the Penguins scored his, and his teams last goal of the game after that.  He must be on contract to score at least 2 a game.  Must be trying to earn some bonuses I suppose.  Ressler pulled out his ‘dangler’ a minute later and got that goal back, while Filewich ‘stuck in’ his 7th and 8th of the season for a hat-trick to the end the game 9-3 for the Gators.

Hayes stopped all the Penguins except Mitchell for a 37 save win

Lando sniped 2 for a well

deserved GatorOfTheGame nods

Other Gator News:

Gators are ‘hard’ into an 11 game win streak

Buckley actually got 5 points on the night so maybe he’s a keeper

Jordy is upset that spencer screwed him over on a trade they made last week, spencer didn't put the trade through before the game started so spence collected the points from his guy on that game and then put the trade through and the next day collected the points on the guys he got from jordy 

Bradley is pretty much Connor McDavid... if Connor touches teammates in the shower after a hattie

Overton may need counseling 

Spenny was particularly bad this game, even by Spenny standards

McRae makes for an equally ineffective defensive partner

Buckley and his wandering eyes takes long showers

I tried my best to insert as much sexual innuendo as I could this GatorNews
