Puck Pimps Win Quarterfinal Matchup

Wednesday, March 8, 2017

The three seeded Puck Pimps met the six seeded Vudoo in this game. The Puck Pimps took 18/21 points in their last seven games, with six regulation wins in that span, while the Vudoo won 4/18 points, with four regulation losses in that span. The Puck Pimps, with their much better play, were the favorite, but had to go out there and get that win.

Alex Russel got the game started for the Puck Pimps when he scored from Zach Kampf. Soon after, Greg Mustoe scored with help from Tarek Bonna, making it 2-0 Pimps. Jesse Peterson was assisted by Tom Godon, to make it 2-1, but with three seconds left in the first period, Chris Kazlauskas put the Pimps back up by two.

The second period began with Alex Russel getting back on the scoresheet, but this time it was for a tripping penalty. The Pimps were up to the task, and kept the Vudoo off the board. After returning to even strength, the Pimps got another when Greg Mustoe scored through Keith Weissman. Now up 4-1, Dave Petzinger scored through Marc Gallagher to make it 5-1, but 50 seconds later, the Vudoo scored when Gary Len was found by his team's leading scorer, James Woods-Corwin. Alex Russel got his second of the game, and it was now 6-2, but Woods-Corwin scored a crucial goal with nine seconds left in the period from Kurt Seidel, sending it into the third, 6-3 Puck Pimps.

With 8:30 to play, Gary Len was called for tripping, but during the delay, Tarek Bonna made it 7-3. The Vudoo were now running out of time, and with 8:03 remaining, Ray "Ziesse's Peanut Butter Cup" Ziesse tripped a Pimp. The Pimps could not increase their lead, then took a penalty of their own 56 seconds after the penalty expired, when Weissman roughed a member of the Vudoo. This would be the Vudoo's best chance to get closer, but they would not score any more goals, and would go down 7-3 to the Pimps.
