NETMINDING FUEL PIGEONS' JOYRIDE
May 23, 2012
The Dark Pigeons that took to the rink Wednesday night were a squad
that their opponents have not seen in several months. In virtually a must
win game, the Dirty Birds transformed into the best team that has
played at the S. S. C. all season. Every Pigeon skated with heart as
they outplayed the Ambush in every facet of the game. All seven
Pigeons scored a goal en route to an 8 - 1 victory. Jason Shaffer
signed a one day contract and rejoined his Pigeons in net. Shaffer was
nearly perfect as he stopped al but one Ambush shot. The Pigeons'
goaltender kept some Ambush furies out of the back of the net and
flashed the glove a few times to inspire his team.

The Pigeons never trailed as they scored the first goal of the game and
never looked back. B. Lowe beat C. J. Stewart gloveside to give his
team a 1 - 0 lead. Alex DeFrank extended his goal streak to four
games as he scored the eventual game winner. After Matt Sheads
struck, the Ambush broke the shutout just before the half. Trevor
Harlacker slide the puck into the net as the two teams skated 3 on 3.

As the second half started, B. Lowe scored his second of the game on
a shorthanded opportunity. The Pigeons rolled as McCrone,
Kemmlein, Clowney, and Voss rounded out the scoring. Leading the
team with assists on the night were Ryan McCrone and Alex DeFrank
with three. Mark Clowney and B. Lowe recorded a helper each.

The Pigeons biggest opponent looms on May 30th as they play Snipin'
Aint Easy. The Pigeons hope to shutdown Dombrowski and S.A.E.

PIGEONS' LOCKER ROOM STILL UPBEAT
DESPITE EARLY BUMPS IN THE ROAD
May 19, 2012
Over the past three years, the Pigeons' seasons have resembled Bill
Murray's movie Groundhog Day. The last nine seasons have been that
of digging a hole in the standings, making a run, clinching a playoff spot,
and ending the quest for the cup with disappointment. The Pigeons
have compiled an all star team this season and while they are fifth in the
standings after three games, the Birds will find a way to win.

Jeff Farenga addressed his team after the 5 - 4 setback to the Punshers.
"We simply need to get back to basics and play some solid defense.
The wins will come" said Farenga. The last two losses have been
tough as the Pigeons could not muster enough offense as they missed B.
Lowe against the Irish Car Bombs. Without the leadership of Matt
Sheads in Wednesday, the Dirty Birds could not get into a groove as
they lost to their biggest rival. In the roller coaster game, the Pigeons
could not get a bounce as they lost 5 - 4 to the Punishers.

The road ahead will not be easy for the Birds as they play the Ambush
and Snipin' Aint Easy over their next two games. Both squads are
ahead of the Pigeons in the standings. Wins over these teams could
"right the ship" very quickly for the Winged Rats.
