In another classic NESHL match up the PA Center-peds took on the CT Wolf Pack in their first meet of season, and in classic CT fashion the Pack started out the first period slow allowing 2 goals (McDevitt, Blaine) and 9 shots on goal.

Connecticut slightly upped their game in the 2nd by only allowing 1 goal (Blaine) and 8 shots on goal.

The real story of this game was the 3rd period.  Pack goalie and Defense  showed their true colors by only allowing 7 shots on goal and Karen “I can’t put my arms down” Smith stopping all 7 in the 3rd and 21 out of 24 shots the whole game.

There was also a bit of physical play in period 3 involving Wolf Pack D Bobby “Napoleon Complex” Jenner and Bugz Center Danny “pick on the little guy” McDevitt.  Jenner hit McDevitt behind the net with what some would call a slightly high and slightly over extended hit into the boards. McDevitt taking note and stalking Jenner like a shark stalks a very tiny hunk of tuna retaliated with a high hit of his own that sparked an exchange of what I will call “Pleasantry’s”  and  “Colorful Metaphors” between the two.

Is this the start of a new rivalry? Will this over shadow the EPIC rivalry between Tyler “Flounder” Konvent and Mike “I only score points because Joe Howard sets me up” Ciavarro? Only time will tell.

Bugz beat Pack with a final score of 3 to 0
