Cough, Cough, excuse me, Cough, Cough! story and photos by Ian Gibson
Elliot Lake Centennial Arena, January 8, 2010: Elliot Lake Bobcats 9, King City, King Wild 6. The title of this write up says it all. Both teams were guilty of "coughing up the puck" (at least) for the first ten goals. This made it difficult for the net minders at both ends of the rink. The forwards on both teams were skating hard for the entire game. Unfortunately the defence coughed up the puck on some poor passes for the first and second periods. The Cats opened the scoring at the 17:30 mark of the first period and followed it with another at 7:41. That was it for the first, however in the second the lead changed hands twice more leaving the Cats ahead 6 to 5 at the periods end. The Cats, who never seem to run out of gas struck quickly in the third with three unanswered goals scored in a little under four minutes. The Wild found the back of the net with 9:29 to go in the period but were unable to do it again. Shots on goal were 49 by the Bobcats to 42 by the King Wild. Notables for this game were #26 Tom Rush, #23 Patrick Mirga for the Bobcats and #61 Brendan Garrugia and #13 Joseph Santino for the King Wild More Game Photos:
